Workforce Race Equality Standard (WRES) report

Workforce Race Equality Standard 2018/19 CQC has published its Workforce Race Equality Standard (WRES) report for 2018/19. This is its third year of reporting on the experiences of BME staff to ensure equal access to career opportunities and fair treatment in the workplace.

This year’s data shows progress in Indicators 2, 3 and 4:

  • the likelihood of white staff being appointed from shortlisting is the same as for BME staff
  • the data tells us there is no difference in the likelihood of a BME colleague entering a formal disciplinary process compared to a white colleague
  • this year’s data shows that there is no difference in the relative likelihood of white staff accessing non-mandatory learning compared to BME staff
