Equality and diversity
It is important that apprenticeship pathways are inclusive and can demonstrate an active approach to identifying and removing barriers to entry and progression. Pathways should advance equality of opportunity between persons who share protected characteristics and those persons who do not as identified in the Equality Act 2010.
The Protected characteristics identified in the Equality Act are age, disability, gender re-assignment, race, religion or belief, sex, sexual orientation, pregnancy and maternity. Marriage and civil partnership is also included although only in respect of the requirement to eliminate discrimination in employment.
Training providers and employers MUST also comply with the other duty under the Equality Act 2010 to ensure that applicants are not discriminated against in terms of entry to the industry based upon those nine protected characteristics.
Workforce Development Trust is committed to supporting employers in the finance, legal, accountancy and financial services sectors to achieve a workforce that reflects, at all levels, the diversity of the UK’s population. Our emphasis throughout is upon equality and diversity both for both new entrants to the sector and opportunities for progression for the existing workforce.
Our aim is to see the progression of all under-represented groups. There should be open recruitment of Apprentices to the programme, which is available to all people, regardless of gender, ethnic origin, religion, or disability who meet the stated selection criteria.
Apprenticeships should have flexible entry and progression routes into the professions which can support mid-career, career interchange and career returner opportunities.
Legislation regulating equality and diversity has introduced new requirements that firms must now comply with, such as the Equality Act 2010 and the Enterprise and Regulatory Reform Act 2013. Such legislation prohibits discrimination in the workplace based on specific protected characteristics.
As of 6 April 2018, gender pay legislation mandates all employers with more than 250 employees to report annually on their gender pay gap.

Information to help disabled students to understand the Equality Act has been produced by Disability Rights UK and can be found here:
https://www.disabilityrightsuk.org/understanding-equality-act-information-disabled-students
All partners involved in the delivery of the apprenticeship - providers, assessment centres and employers must be committed to a policy of equal opportunities and must have a stated equal opportunities policy and procedure.
This will help talent, regardless of background or qualifications to have the opportunity to develop and thrive. This pathway therefore aims to tackle these issues.
Workforce Development Trust encourages all apprentices to progress onto further education and progression routes are available for them to do so.
Employment responsibilities and rights
Employment Responsibilities and Rights (ERR) is no longer compulsory. But it is recommended that all apprentices (especially the 16 years -18 year group) receive a company induction programme.
Responsibilities
It is the responsibility of the Training Provider and Employer to ensure that the requirements of this pathway are delivered in accordance with the Welsh Government Apprenticeships Guidance.
