Policing Together Equality, Diversity and Inclusion strategy
A society where everyone can thrive and flourish flows from Police Scotland’s purpose to improve the lives and wellbeing of our fellow citizens, for the benefit of all.
Discrimination should have no place in society and no place in policing.
Disadvantage and injustice persist and policing has an important role to play as, collectively, we build a country where everyone knows they are safe and secure.
We have listened to our communities, including our own officers and staff, and of course all of us know policing is not immune from the challenges of racism, sexism, homophobia and discrimination.
Our values of integrity, fairness, respect and upholding human rights demand we meet these challenges head-on. We are resolute in our determination to do so.
Our Equality, Diversity and Inclusion strategy outlines the action we are taking to champion equality and inclusion so that we tackle discrimination and become a Service where every officer and member of staff can flourish and thrive with the knowledge they are welcome and valued for their true and authentic selves.
