The Department is committed to Diversity and Inclusion (D&I), with a strategy which aims to create an inclusive culture where difference is valued, diversity is harnessed, and everyone has equal opportunity to achieve their potential.<\/p>
Within the Department we have 10 posts which have either \u2018equality, diversity or inclusion\u2019 in the job title. Seven of these roles are within Human Resources and the remaining are in the different business areas.<\/p>
Within the Department, there are also five posts with \u2018inequalities\u2019 in the job title and two posts with \u2018neurodiversity\u2019 in the job title.<\/p>
In addition to this, we have visible Senior D&I Champions in place and their role includes sponsorship and aligning priorities and forward plans with staff networks. The Departmental Champions works with other Civil Service D&I Champions to push forward the diversity and inclusion agenda across the Civil Service.<\/p>"} , "answeringMember" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/members/4362", "label" : {"_value" : "Biography information for Edward Argar"} } , "answeringMemberConstituency" : {"_value" : "Charnwood"} , "answeringMemberPrinted" : {"_value" : "Edward Argar"} , "dateOfAnswer" : {"_value" : "2020-09-09", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} , "isMinisterialCorrection" : {"_value" : "false", "_datatype" : "boolean"} , "questionFirstAnswered" : [{"_value" : "2020-09-09T12:12:44.6Z", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} ]} , "answeringDeptId" : {"_value" : "17"} , "answeringDeptShortName" : {"_value" : "Health and Social Care"} , "answeringDeptSortName" : {"_value" : "Health and Social Care"} , "date" : {"_value" : "2020-09-01", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} , "hansardHeading" : {"_value" : "Department of Health and Social Care: Staff"} , "houseId" : {"_value" : "1"} , "legislature" : [{"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/terms/25259", "prefLabel" : {"_value" : "House of Commons"} } ], "questionText" : "To ask the Secretary of State for Health and Social Care, how many roles in his Department have either equality, diversity or inclusion in the job title.", "registeredInterest" : {"_value" : "false", "_datatype" : "boolean"} , "tablingMember" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/members/4679", "label" : {"_value" : "Biography information for Neil O'Brien"} } , "tablingMemberConstituency" : {"_value" : "Harborough"} , "tablingMemberPrinted" : [{"_value" : "Neil O'Brien"} ], "uin" : "83929"} , {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/resources/1230112", "AnsweringBody" : [{"_value" : "Home Office"} ], "answer" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/resources/1230112/answer", "answerText" : {"_value" : "
Job titles are not held centrally and could only be retrieved at disproportionate cost.<\/p>
The Home Office central Diversity & Inclusion (D&I) team has 18 staff who work across the organisation for its workforce of nearly 37,000 staff. The team are responsible for setting the strategic direction for diversity and inclusion as set out in the Home Office D&I Strategy 2018-2025: Inclusive by Instinct<\/em>.<\/p> The Home Office is committed to becoming a more diverse and inclusive Department and going beyond the mandated requirements established in EA2010. This inclusive approach will make the Department a stronger organisation that is better equipped to develop and deliver policy and services for the public we serve. Achieving this ambition requires action from everyone in the Department.<\/p> In addition to the central D&I team there are further roles which whilst not exclusively working on diversity and inclusion do have responsibilities for realisation of the D&I strategy, and delivery of D&I interventions. These roles are distributed across the HO, and include staff support network chairs/leads who have between 20 \u2013 50% of their time allocated to this role, as well as some HR Business Partners that have specific D&I responsibilities.<\/p>"}
