equality and diversity
Assignment unit 2 equality and diversity
In this assignment I will be looking into equality and diversity. I think it’s really important for people to be fair and equal I the society that we now live in because it has changed a lot since our grandparents grew up and their views have somewhat influenced our actions against diverse people in today’s society.

There are many benefits of diversity first of all there is the education factor, I personally that people now have been brought up around diversity and are taught well within school, however there is still the older generation which are maybe uneducated and they are the ones who would usually make unethical comments and they would sometimes pass those thoughts and behaviours onto their off spring and the people they influence the most. Also the language barrier is decreasing because more foreign people are speaking English now, this make it easier in health and social care situations because we can communicate with those people, however there are still people who don’t speak English and there is becoming more and more support for those people whether it be a translator or the opportunity to learn English in night classes. Most people now are multi-linguistic.
There is also another benefit of diversity, and that is the fact that those people that are moving into our country are helping the economic situation by either working and paying taxes or spending money within our communities, this is vital to help us out of the current economic situation. Also a lot of people are coming in and doing the jobs that English people don’t really want to do for example, cleaning, building and working in factories this links in well with our economic situation because it is helping our economy.
Terminology:
Rights: moral principles e.g.: women’s rights, human rights
Discrimination: the unfair treatment of people from another race or sexuality.
Covert discrimination: subtle or hidden discrimination
