Why do an equality training course?
Article 14 of the Spanish Constitution enshrines the principle of equality of all Spanish citizens before the law, without any discrimination on the grounds, among others, of sex. Equality - and therefore non-discrimination on grounds of sex - is a fundamental principle enshrined in our Constitution and in European Union law.
But formal equality (as established by rules and regulations) is one thing; real or effective equality is another. It cannot be denied that much has been achieved, but there is still a long way to go. Equality training provides many keys to detecting discriminatory situations in different areas and raising awareness of the lack of effective equality of opportunities between women and men. It is also a prerequisite for achieving the goals at subject of sustainable growth, competitiveness, employment and social cohesion (SDGs 8 and 10).
Equality training and Equality Plans
Royal Decree-Law 6/2019, of 1 March, incorporates very significant changes in subject of equality plans: among them, it makes it compulsory for all companies with fifty or more employees to draw up and implement an equality plan.
Equality plans must have an ordered set of measures. The first phase, the diagnosis phase, requires, among other things, equality training. This training is divided into:
training The initial training in equality that must be acquired by all persons participating in the elaboration of the equality plan.
training in raising awareness of equality between women and men. This training must be received, first and foremost, by the managers and middle management of business.
training in equality addressed to all the workers of a business.
Equality training is a prerequisite for obtaining the equality label in companies.
In addition, accreditation of this training will be progressively required for access to certain public contracts, tenders and public subsidies.
