North East Equality Awards

The Launch of the 2010 North East Equality Awards coincides with the Equality Bill receiving Royal Assent.

The implementation of the Act will start in October, the same time as the annual ‘Celebration Dinner’.

Those finalists and winners who join in the celebration on that evening do so in the knowledge that they are ahead of the game!

This is the seventh year of the North East Equality Awards which are unique in the region and in the country. They give us an opportunity to showcase and celebrate the good practice that can lead to real business benefits and to showcase the region as a whole.

The employers who are recognised through the awards are providing evidence that they are not just doing the minimum but constantly looking for new and innovative ways to ensure they remove barriers facing employees or potential employees so that everyone can give of their full potential. They are doing this because they know it makes good business sense.

I would like to invite you to be one of those employers or individuals and to celebrate with us. There will be a category that suits you.
