We collect diversity data from our employees, Council members, fitness to practise partners, and the healthcare professionals on our register
We collect equality, diversity and inclusion data from our employees, Council members, partners* and the healthcare professionals on our register.
By delving into the data we hold, we can develop a better understanding of how different groups are affected by our processes.
Our ambitions to be a fair and inclusive regulator and employer go beyond complying with the requirements of equality and human rights legislation (including our public sector equality duties). This starts with understanding and evidencing the EDI profile of our registrants, partners and employees. Data unlocks the potential to shine a light on the issues with a strong evidence base to back it up.
Overall, we need to garner a more holistic and transparent EDI data profile in order to identify and take action to address any potential discrimination, harassment, and/or unconscious/conscious bias. We must first gain this (current) picture before we are able to begin analysing the impact of our regulation on our registrants in relation to their EDI characteristics and understanding how the demographics are evolving through time.

HCPC Pay Gap Reports
All employers with 250 or more employees are required to publish their pay gap data every year under legislation that came into force in April 2017. In these reports, we provide an analysis of our gender and ethnicity pay gaps. This data is presented for the snapshot date of the previous year and covers employees and our HCPC partners.
