Our approach to supporting trans, non-binary and gender non-conforming staff

Our approach to supporting trans, non-binary and gender non-conforming staff  (.pdf) sets out how we support new and existing trans, non-binary and gender non-conforming employees and those who transition whilst at Essex. It is a resource for:

  • trans, non-binary and gender non-conforming employees
  • those with management responsibilities for trans, non-binary and gender non-conforming employees
  • colleagues of trans, non-binary and gender non-conforming employees
  • People and Culture employees.

Our approach to supporting trans, non-binary and gender non-conforming employees is one of a suite of documents that sets out how we aim to create an inclusive environment in which all employees feel safe and supported. Other related documents include our Athena SWAN Bronze Institution Action Plan, which focuses on our commitment to gender equality more broadly, our Zero Tolerance Approach to Harassment and Bullying’, our Equality, Diversity and Inclusion Policy and our strategic approach to supporting all employees; ‘How we Work at Essex'.
