What are the policy agendas of Managing Diversity in an organization

  

Answers


Faith
(i) Accept that, having satisfied the requirements of the law, everything cannot be done at
once. Prioritise initiatives which nurture personal development and individual contributions. Aim to release and develop the potential of as many people as possible as quickly as practicable.
(ii) Make sure the organisation is kept informed about developments in the equality field.
(iii) Aim to create an empowering culture in which decisions are made at the most appropriate levels. Encourage experimentation and innovation, continuous learning and development through mentoring and training. Commit to realistic but stretching objectives. Monitor training across diverse groups.
(iv) Link the management of diversity to other systematic value-driven initiatives, such as Investors in People, total quality management and the UK Quality Aware.
(v) Build diversity concepts and practice into management training and team building programmes. This will increase awareness about the need to handle different views,
perceptions and ideas in positive ways. Include diversity objectives in job descriptions
and appraisal systems.
(vi) Train widely to encourage an understanding of why valuing people as individuals is
important to the organisation. Introduce awareness raising about diversity and provide
skills training to help people work together better in a diverse environment. Include
diversity issues in induction programmes so that all new employees know about the
organisation's policies and values.
(vii) Make clear that the organisation recognises that employees have caring responsibilities. This can be achieved by having employment provisions which help people to make the best arrangements to balance their work and personal responsibilities. Provisions should be available fairly to everybody, comply with the law and support business needs.
(viii) Encourage suppliers to adopt diversity management approaches in their organisations
and include specific requirements in contract specifications.
