Racism spirals out of control
by Sarah
A survey I found on the internet today shows that 56% of us think racism is getting worse. 1 in 5 people have witnessed racial discrimination and almost 1/3 have experienced sexual discrimination. 3/4 of people surveyed think employers are responsible for educating employees about racism, sexism and ageism issues. 62% think training at work can change people’s attitudes. Even from an employment lawyer’s point of view the statistics are suprising as we act for a range of employers who thankfully do not have many issues. Perhaps it is their training on the issue that increases awareness. Of course we are more than happy to assist in this regard whether it be via face to face training or our e-learning product “Dignity at Work” designed specifically to deal with these issues.
