THE West Midlands Combined Authority (WMCA) has been named as the first organisation in the UK to qualify to use the RACE (Reporting Action Composition Education) Equality Code quality mark.
The new code has been designed to help organisations take action to improve race equality in the workplace and draws together more than 200 recommendations outlined in reports, charters, and pledges, which aim to tackle diversity and inclusion challenges.
To qualify to display the mark, the WMCA had to demonstrate it encouraged race equality in its own organisation by going through an assessment and drawing up an action plan for it to follow.
