Explain the impact of a lack of equality and inclusion to the work setting of an early year setting

Specific individuals and groups may encounter systematic, attitudinal and physical barriers to equality because of their personal circumstances and characteristics. There is some legal protection against this inequality called prohibited conduct, however, this is limited to defining elements related to protected characteristics. Despite this legal defence, some of these ‘protected’ individuals in the UK still face disadvantage and discrimination.

A report from the Equality Human Rights Commission found that prejudice is experienced across all protected characteristics, which included:

54% of people from ethnic minorities reporting that they had been a victim of ethnic or racial prejudice

46% of lesbian, gay or bisexual people reporting that they had experienced prejudice based on their sexual orientation

44% of respondents stated that they were openly negative about Gypsy, Roma and Travellers

29% of respondents stating that they felt strong discomfort with the idea of a connection to a family member with a mental health condition

25% disabled people with a physical impairment reporting that they experienced prejudice because of their impairment.
