Equality and diversity
Lambeth Council is genuinely committed to achieving best practice in Equalities and Diversity. This means:
- Recognising that everyone is different and treating these differences with equal respect
- Valuing the diversity of people in Lambeth
- Delivering services openly and fairly, and in ways which suit our customers
- Investing in a skilled, stable and diverse workforce
- Challenging discrimination in all its forms
Information on equalities and diversity at Lambeth, including publications, policies, reports and guides to our services.
Equalities impact assessments are a powerful tool, which can identify - and address - any potential for discrimination before new policies and services are introduced.
Investors in People (IiP) is a national quality standard which sets best practice for improving an organisation’s performance through its people. Lambeth achieved corporate IiP recognition in December 2004. Few other councils have achieved corporate recognition.
