Managing Diversity: Race and Religion

Course Length: 3 hours

CPD Points: 3

It is important to know that race is a protected characteristic that refers to an individual's race, colour, nationality and ethnic or national origins.

• Colour includes, for example, being black or white.
• Nationality includes, for example, being a British, Jamaican or Pakistani citizen.
• Ethnic or national origins include, for example, being from a Roma background or of Chinese heritage.

A racial group could be, for example, ‘Black Britons’ which would include people who are both black and British citizens
