Equality Impact Assessments

The purpose of an Equality Impact Assessment (EIA) is to improve the work of Gloucester City Homes by making sure GCH does not discriminate and that, where possible, it promotes equality. 

Equality Impact Assessments originate from the Race Relations (Amendment) Act 2000, the Disability Discrimination Act 2005, as well as the Equality Standard for Local Government (ESLG), all of which place obligations on public sector organisations to carry out impact assessments. Gloucester City Homes equality proofing process is aimed at assessing the impact of policies, services, strategies, functions or projects across the six equality groups which are race, gender, religion/belief, sexual orientation, disability and age. 

On this page you can find Equality Impact Assessments and the template that is in current use, together with further information about the purpose of EIA’s and the GCH approach. On an ongoing basis, completed equality impact assessments are submitted to the Equalities Steering group for review and are scrutinised by the Board.
