Update your data in August - don't be an unknown

10 Aug 2016

For August our Diversity Calendar theme is Data Collection

equality and diversity data

Personal information which staff or students provide to the University helps us to produce anonymous statistical reports. These allow us to make sure we are directing time and resources in the places that will make the most positive differences for everyone. These figures also help us identify and understand potential equality issues across our functions and, where appropriate, we use the findings to develop our equality objectives.

Data is collated as a whole percentage and never reported on individually. If you don’t want to disclose something, just choose ‘prefer not to say’ – at least we know you have made the choice! Currently there are large proportions of unknown data about the religion/belief and the sexual orientation of our staff population. So, next time you visit MyView, just select ‘View and Amend Your Personal Details’ then ‘Equal Opportunities Data’.
