Workforce diversity has become widely recognised in all sectors. The background and context of this debate provides an opportunity to explore contemporary contexts, concepts, policies and practices. Theories of equality, diversity and labour market occupational segregation/segmentation are analysed. Dimensions of gender, race, disability, age, religion and sexual orientation are considered in organisational processes, which produce and reinforce inequalities of outcome among diverse social groups. UK/European legislative frameworks, policy approaches and implications at organisational level are reviewed.
