If you are going to establish an effective Christian Group in the workplace, you will have to work with other staff network groups (Employee Resource Groups) and operate within the organisation’s equality and diversity or inclusion framework. It is therefore important from the outset that all group members understand the implications of this framework for both personal and group Christian witness.

The Transform Work Team believes that the principles of equality and diversity should be supported by both managers and staff in all workplaces, whilst recognising that at times there may be points of tension which require discussion and exploration within the Christian Workplace Group.

All equality, diversity and inclusion frameworks, principles, policies and procedures of any organisation are first and foremost governed by the Equality Act 2010. The Act offers protection to people with nine listed ‘protected characteristics’: age, disability, gender reassignment, marriage and civil partnership, pregnancy and maternity, race, religion or belief, sex, and sexual orientation.
