Equality impact assessments

As a local authority, we have a legal responsibility to make sure that our policies, procedures, and functions do not negatively impact our diverse community.

Equality Impact Assessments (EqIA) offer a framework for this assessment. We think about the impact of each council policy or function across the 9 protected characteristics:

  1. Age
  2. Disability
  3. Gender reassignment
  4. Marriage and civil partnerships
  5. Pregnancy and maternity
  6. Race
  7. Religion and belief
  8. Sex
  9. Sexual orientation

When we identify an adverse (negative) impact, we will try to remove or minimise this impact.

A full list of our completed EqIAs can be found below.

We welcome your view on any of these assessments. If you have any queries/feedback please email equality.schemes@scambs.gov.uk.
