Equality and Diversity Policy - Policy Statement

“Rochdale Boroughwide Housing recognises that people who provide and use its services come from many diverse backgrounds, with different experiences and needs. This policy aims to ensure that no-one receives less favourable treatment because of race, ethnic origin, nationality, religion, cultural background, sex, sexuality, disability, domestic circumstances, illness, age, employment status, membership of trade unions or political beliefs. RBH also acknowledges that some people experience more than one form of discrimination.”

RBH’s Equality and Diversity Action Plan, relating legislation and statutory guidance in equality issues, is used to monitor compliance with the Equality and Diversity Policy and service delivery to all groups within the borough.
