Religion & Belief: Respecting and Accommodating Faith & Belief

**Under Construction**

Enabling people of different beliefs to work together in harmony is essential for any organization that wants to get the best from all of its employees and cater to a diverse client base.

The Equality Act 2010 makes it illegal to discriminate against employees, job seekers or trainees on the grounds of religion or belief, or lack thereof. With the UK enjoying greater religious diversity than any other country in the European Union, the challenge of enabling different beliefs to work together is a particularly important one. Developed in partnership with FaithWise, this course provides guidance on best practice and emphasizes the value of a religiously diverse and inclusive workplace.
