Equal opportunities information


Corporate Equalities Plan

The City of London published its first Corporate Equalities Plan in 2004, as part of its commitment to attaining various levels of the Equality Standard for Local Government. This set out what every Department intended to do to ensure that equal opportunity became a key part of the way we work, and is at the centre of policy making, service delivery and employment practice. This Plan has evolved in response to feedback from residents, City workers and businesses, service users and other stakeholders. It has also developed as Departments progressed their initial plans and moved forward to new areas of work.

This information is also fed into local service planning, the Community Strategy (the City Together; a vision for a world class city) and the City of London’s annual Business Planning cycle, and aims to ensure that services are relevant and accurately represent all the communities served by the City of London. Our Race Equality Scheme (see below) has been incorporated into the Corporate Equalities Plan.

Gender Equality Scheme

The City of London has published its first draft Gender Equality Scheme for consultation, pending final Member approval. The Scheme sets out out how we intended to meet our general and specific duties under the Equality Act 2006 and was developed with input from a broad consultation process. Responses came from City residents, City workers, our own employees and our recognised trade unions.

This Scheme incorporates the Gender Equality Scheme of the Police Authority for the City of London Police (a responsibility which is discharged by the City of London's Police Committee).

If you have any feedback or comments on the scheme, please contact the Equalities Manager on 020 7332 3328 or email us at equalities.team@cityoflondon.gov.uk.
