Description:
Equal Opportunities in employment: Why Positive Action? A guidance paper by the Commission for Racial Equality (CRE).
The CRE's first guidance papers, Equal Opportunity in Employment and
Monitoring an Equal Opportunity Policy, concentrated on steps to be taken to avoid or eliminate discrimination in employment through the development of equal opportunity policies. In the CRE's view such policies in certain circumstances needed to be complemented by positive action, and in this paper the CRE set out what it meant by this term, explained what is specifically allowed by the law, and gave practical examples of what could be done.
