Race Equality Hub

For an equal and inclusive workplace (Bectu)

Equality and diversity are union issues. At Bectu we are committed to tackling racism and discrimination in the workplace and wider society.

We are delivering allyship training to Bectu reps and branches to help members better support and advocate for colleagues from minority backgrounds. Get in touch with your Bectu organiser if you are interested in taking part.
