A guide for Listed Public bodies in Wales to support the engagement of individuals to ensure that equality is properly considered within the organisation and that it influences decision-making at all levels.

This guidance has been developed primarily for those responsible for implementing the Wales specific equality duties, particularly those at senior and operational level who are responsible for policy and decision-making regarding pay difference information and staff training.

This is guidance to assessing impact where a public authority planning to introduce a new policy or make changes or cuts to a service should ensure it has sufficient evidence to consider whether the decision would have a disproportionate impact on people sharing one or more protected characteristics.
