EEO Trust – supporting versatile workplaces
The Equal Employment Opportunities (EEO) Trust is a not-for-profit organisation that provides employers with information and tools on EEO issues and raises awareness of the benefits of a diverse workforce. It works in partnership with employers to help them achieve success through effectively managing diversity and supporting work-life balance.
By practising the principles of EEO, workplaces can:
- improve their effectiveness,
- recruit from the biggest possible pool of talent and
- enable the people they employ to contribute their full potential.
The EEO Trust works alongside employers, helping them assess and improve their recruitment processes and overcome any obstacles that may inhibit them from employing a diverse range of staff.
The EEO Employers Group was established in 1997 and has nearly 400 members who wish to demonstrate their commitment to valuing and rewarding fairly the talent of the diverse people they employ.
