Equal Opportunities
The British Dental Association is committed to equality in the
provision of its services to its members and stakeholders. This ensures
that all members, those applying for membership, and other service users
will receive the highest possible standards of service from the BDA,
irrespective of race, ethnicity, gender, sexual orientation, marital
status, civil partnership status, age, disability, chronic illness,
religion or beliefs.
Our equal opportunities policy has been
developed to ensure that BDA members and staff are fully aware of our
commitment to provide equality of opportunity in all of our functions.
Furthermore, the BDA will monitor the implementation and application of
our equal opportunities policy and ensure that it reflects and meets the
requirements of the increasingly diverse membership which we seek to
serve.
The BDA continually monitors legislation and good practice
relating to equal opportunities, anti-discrimination, equality and
diversity and will update this resource periodically to reflect current
knowledge.
