Request
‘’ Under FOI, can I please request details the size and costs of your equality, diversity and inclusion (EDI) department/workforce. Please include details for all staff members whose role is exclusively or predominantly related to EDI, or the equivalent term used by you as a health board.
The information I am seeking relates to staff whose role is exclusively or predominantly related to EDI issues. For example, this would include human rights, equality, diversity and/or inclusion officers, managers, leads, heads, etc. It would not include general human resources staff for whom equality issues may be a small part of their role.
Can you please provide answers to the following questions:
1) how many EDI staff, by headcount, do you currently employ?
2) how many EDI staff, by headcount, were employed on January 1, 2019.
3) What is the combined annual salary of all EDI staff currently employed for 2023-24. Where a staff member is part time, please base this calculation on the actual salary, rather than pro-rata salary.
4) what was the total annual salary paid to EDI staff for the 2018-2019 financial year.
5) Which salary band is your most senior member of EDI staff currently in?
