Equality Audit
The TUC publishes a biennial equality audit. The first audit was carried out in 2003 and provides a yardstick to measure progress on equality issues across all union activities.
Audits alternate between focusing on how unions pursue equality issues through collective bargaining and on how union membership, rules and internal structures reflect the diversity of the workforce.
The audit was established after a TUC rule change in 2001, which committed the TUC and unions to promote equality in all aspects of our work. All TUC affiliated unions are asked to complete a survey for the audit.
Equality Audit 2022
The TUC Equality Audit 2022 considers the steps unions are taking to promote equality in their membership, structures and processes, and to ensure they reflect the diversity of their membership.
