Age: Realising the benefits of an age diverse
workforcePart one
This documentary, divided into the following
chapters, enables viewers to gain an awareness of the key issues
surrounding age and the workplace in the light of the new age
regulations. Featuring employees, employers and HR specialists
in a wide range of organisations, it explains why age diversity
in the workplace makes good business sense.
Age and your workplace challenges the ageist
stereotypes by featuring the working life of a 60 year old winch
man with a Coastguard Search and Rescue Helicopter Unit. At the
young end of the scale, we meet the 19 year old who became the
London winner of the Contribution to Business Award 2006.

|
Key learning points
|
An understanding of employers’ and employees
responsibilities under the Employment Equality
(Age) Regulations 2006.
|
|
Why age is a key aspect of diversity and it
simply doesn’t make sense to overlook good
people because they are seen as too old or too
young.
|
|
Why it is misleading, unreasonable and
unlawful to make assumptions about peoples’
abilities based on age alone.
How an ‘aged-balanced’ workforce can give an
organisation a healthy combination of fresh
thinking, new ideas, stability, maturity,
experience and ‘corporate memory’.
|
|
How to create an atmosphere that gives people
the space and encouragement to flourish so an
organisation can reap the benefits of a
mixed-age workforce.
|
|
How training can help workers adapt to new
systems and technologies and inspire them to
get involved in implementing change.
|
|
What constitutes harassment on the grounds of
age and why it is often unintended.
|
|
Age laws protect employees throughout their
working lives and are involved in all aspects
of employment from recruitment, grievances,
pay and benefits to career development,
progression and retirement.

Equal opportunities for all
This programme
shows employees how all types of discrimination can and should be avoided in the
workplace.
About the
programme
This video demonstrates some of the common discrimination problems using
dramatised case studies. It shows that it may be wrong to treat everybody as if
they are the same, because people are individuals. And it may be equally as
wrong to treat them as different, either because of stereotypes or by judging
one aspect of their persona such as age and race.
Femi Otitoju, a leading authority on equal opportunities, takes us through five
clear examples.
|
What can we do for him? Dealing
with physical disability and how easy it is to make assumptions about others
|
|
Ron’s girls. How inappropriate
language about someone else’s gender or sexuality can be offensive and cruel,
even if we don’t realise it |
|
Present company accepted… About
racial discrimination and the importance of non-verbal communication as well
as what people say |
|
Can’t they take a joke? Covers the
issue of age and how jokes at the expense of individuals or groups can offend
|
|
Jobs for the boys. Brings all the
issues together, when two women second-guess their organisation’s recruitment
strategy with nothing to go on but stereotypical assumptions |
The benefits
|
Case studies with/without commentary, and flexible written materials
|
|
Sensitive treatment of a problem issue for all staff members
|
|
Wide-ranging problems treated in a sensible, practical way |

A tale of 'O' -
Dealing with diversity in teams
The aim
To integrate all individuals into a team by promoting collective
understanding.
About the programme
This is an entertaining parable about being different; about being an 'O'
among a group of 'X's, such as being a minority through race, sex, handicap,
education, age or occupation. It demonstrates how to integrate non-traditional
employees into a team - avoiding sensitive issues in a non-threatening way.
The discussion that follows the video will be co-operative, and helps promote
understanding and personal effectiveness in work teams. Team members should
become more comfortable in their dealings with each other and thus work
together more productively.
The benefits
|
Comprehensive resource and support materials for running five different
half-day courses

A world
of difference - Working successfully across cultures
This programme shows how to overcome
challenges and maximise productivity when managing a multicultural team.
About the
programme
Working internationally is difficult and demands special skills to ensure
success. However, highly effective managers and professionals often under
perform when working with people from different cultural backgrounds, who do not
share the same values and working practices. This challenge is yet more complex
in multicultural teams where managers are required to build relationships and
achieve business success across a number of different realities, values and
perspectives.
A world of difference is for organisations whose business depends on
high-quality international relationships, and who need support in making
international teamwork effective. The programme focuses on a video dramatisation
of an international team, brought together to launch a new product. It
illustrates the complex challenges that individuals and teams face in working
internationally.
It covers:
|
How conflicting assumptions about
communication style, feedback, task and relationship handling – if unmanaged –
can lead to poor results |
|
The essential international skills
needed to work successfully and manage effective teamwork across cultures |
|
Issues of building trust, teamwork,
people management and remote communication in a multicultural context. |
The benefits
|
Clearly illustrates how business
counterparts from other cultures can have differing approaches and attitudes
to basic business variables |
|
Provides a clear framework for
experienced and inexperienced international professionals to understand the
challenges and complexities of working in a world of difference |
|
Helps to develop the practical
skills and attitudes required to work with differences, rather than against
them, in the pursuit of an organisation’s international goals |

A
Peacock in the Land of Penguins
The aim is to show
employees how to make the most of our strengths and learn from each other.
Meeting the
challenges of a rapidly changing and increasingly diverse world is more
important than ever. This animated, award-winning video featuring Perry the
Peacock is an insightful, inspiring and non-threatening way to illustrate
employee empowerment, effective communication and team building skills within
the context of diversity.
When Perry and his exotic feathered friends arrive in the homogenous Land of
Penguins they have trouble fitting in, despite their talent and intelligence.
However, when Perry and his friends save the island from an attacking pack of
wolves, the penguins realise that in their ever-changing world, all birds would
have to appreciate each other's skills and contributions.
This video and its accompanying Leader's Guide are appropriate for all levels of
an organisation - for executives, managers and supervisors who are in a position
to set the tone and establish policies and procedures, as well as for
non-management employees who need to enhance their tolerance and understanding
of others who are different from themselves and others.

Awareness and one for Creativity

Build awareness of differences and similarities between groups as well as
individuals.

comfortably with a wide variety of individuals.

Managing Diversity
The workplace
is changing, reflecting the increasing diversity of our communities. With
these changes come new challenges.
This
award-winning video takes a hard look at one of the most important issues of
our day. As more and more women and minorities enter the workplace, managing
diversity is more than just "a sensitive issue." It requires a leap to new
levels of awareness.
The task is
not merely to deal with a diverse workforce, but to capitalize on diversity.
Managing
Diversity reveals a range of human perspectives on such issues as power,
authority, communication and performance.
This
enlightening film helps manager better understand the cause and effect of
varying viewpoints. It inspires open-mindedness and a willingness to learn
from those with diverse backgrounds. It offers strategies for clearer two-way
communications, more productive relationships and stronger teamwork. And it
provides guidance for bringing the values of the organizational culture into
focus, and into action.
Managing
Diversity dramatizes problems and solutions in several scenarios involving
differences in gender, race and ethnicity. It presents practical solutions as
the cast models the attitudes and techniques for promoting increased
understanding, expanded participation, effective teamwork and the fullest
expression of individual potential.
|
Understand that
personal values and behaviours are strongly influenced by differences in
gender, race and ethnicity |
|
Develop
enlightened self-awareness by rejecting arbitrary assumptions about people who
have different backgrounds |
|
Identify and
overcome barriers to effective communication and performance |
Programme includes: Video

THE DIFFERENCE: Diversity at work
DVD 1: What the Photocopier saw
48 minutes of powerful and
entertaining drama scenes showing the costs and benefits of managing a diverse
team badly or well. The action revolves around the office photocopier, a
silent witness to countless everyday incidents revealing how the business
suffers when team members fail to treat each other with respect. This is a
subtle training video and there is little spoon feeding - because Diversity is
a subtle and complex subject. Users who want clear guidance about training
points will find it in the accompanying Training Manual. This is also a more
versatile training video than most - the scenes could contribute to training
in a number of other areas, including communication skills, team working and
supervisory skills.
DVD 2: Real people: different people
Six people talk about the prejudices
and stereotypes they encounter at work because of their personal
characteristics: their age, gender, race, sexuality, disability or parental
responsibilities. Each has their own way of dealing with other people’s
attitudes towards them. For some, prejudice causes extra pressure to achieve.
Some are less able to work effectively because of the attitudes they meet. In
this 24 minute programme, we also hear about the positive benefits each of the
six brings to work by being ‘different’.
The programme comes with a
comprehensive Training Manual, in print or on CD-ROM, structured to support
use by trainers or individual learners. Includes a detailed supplement about
the legal framework for diversity and equal opportunities.

Diversity Challenge Maximising
the potential of our diverse workforce
The UK workforce is more diverse that it has ever been. There are more
women, ethnic minorities and disabled people in the workforce than ever
before, moreover the workforce is getting older. It is estimated that by 2011
white non-disabled men will only make up a fifth of the labour market.
For organisations to continue to be successful, they must recruit, retain
and promote talented people without prejudice. Equally, it is critical that
the existing workforce welcomes these people and provides a secure, inclusive
environment where everyone feels valued and their talents fully utilised.
This diversity training DVD enables trainers and managers to understand the
changes at both individual and organisational level that need to be made to
achieve an inclusive workplace and workforce.
The Diversity Challenge comes in three parts:
Part One: Provides an overview of the changing nature of the working
environment in terms of the diverse make-up of the workforce. It is relevant
to all levels of staff.
Part Two: This is a series of short drama scenes giving an account of how
an organisation comes to terms with key diversity issues. It is designed to
trigger discussion and reflection and provide an opportunity to explore how
diversity issues can be managed in practice. While aimed primarily at
managers, it is also relevant to all levels of staff.
Part Three: This role play looks at the importance of attitudes and
behaviours in creating an inclusive working environment, followed by a section
in which experts give advice about appropriate behaviours in the workplace.
Key Learning Points
|
Give an overview of why diversity
is an important issue for every person in every organisation.
|
|
Demonstrate how a ‘one size fits
all’ approach simply does not work anymore and encourages viewers to
understand the benefits of accommodating difference.

issues, and an understanding of the subtle factors that can hamper gender
balance at work. It features both expert analysis and a number of personal
experiences.

aspects of gender issues at work, and explains the role of line management in
creating an inclusive working environment.

Religion and Belief
Respecting and accommodating faith and belief
in the workplace
The UK has a greater religious diversity than any other country in the
European Union. This presents organisations with the challenge of enabling
people of different beliefs to work together in harmony. The diversity of
religion and belief in the UK is represented across the pubic, private and
voluntary sectors and in all professions and occupations.
Along with this diversity, there is significant discrimination on the grounds
of religion and belief. With the introduction of the Employment Equality
(Religion or Belief) Regulations 2003 this discrimination is now against the
law. This means that people can no longer be harassed or victimised, refused
employment or disadvantaged (except in very limited circumstances) because of
their religion or belief.
Religion and Belief comes in three parts:
Introduction: This provides an overview of religion and belief at work,
including legal aspects.
Part One: This documentary section enables viewers to gain an awareness of
the most widely practised religions in the UK. It features a number of
individuals who explain why their religious and non-religious beliefs are so
important to them.
Part Two: This looks at the types of adjustments that can be made to
accommodate different faith groups at work including: prayer facilities, time
off for religious observance, physical contact, dress codes.
Key Learning Points
|
Understand employers’ and
employees’ obligations under the Employment Equality (Religion or Belief)
Regulations 2003 |
|
Gain essential insights into the
four main religions and beliefs in the UK |
|
Consider adjustments that can be
made to accommodate different faith groups at work |
|
Explore their own attitude to
faith, and consider the impact when people try to impose their own religious
beliefs on others |
|
Recognise that certain behaviours
and practices might be unlawful and are also damaging to the morale and
productivity of the workplace, and can potentially lead to legal action |

Sexual Orientation
Respecting lesbian, gay and bi-sexual people in the workplace
More than one in twenty people in the current UK workforce are lesbian, gay
or bisexual (LBG). Since 2003, The Employment Equality (Sexual Orientation)
Regulations have outlawed discrimination in the workplace on the grounds of
sexual orientation. The Civil Partnership Act 2005 extends the rights of married
heterosexual couples to registered same-sex partnerships.
This equality training resource enables managers, staff
and HR policy makers to recognise and address inappropriate and unlawful
behaviour such as:
Discrimination
Harassment
Victimisation
This training DVD comes in two parts:
Part One: is a combination of documentary and drama. It provides an
overview of the key issues surrounding sexual orientation in the workplace,
including legal aspects.
Part Two: is a series of powerful dramatised scenarios. These are
designed to trigger discussion and reflection, and are followed by an 'Analysis'
section, in which experts provide commentary from both a legal and a best
practice perspective.
Key Learning Points
More than one in twenty people are lesbian, gay or bisexual
You can't always tell someone's sexual orientation, so don't make
assumptions
The legal and moral responsibilities of all levels of staff
Why certain behaviours are inappropriate
It is no defence to say you did not intend to cause distress.
This flexible training DVD can be used as a short (40-45 minutes)
session within a diversity programme, as part of a longer (half-day or day)
session on sexual orientation or general diversity, or as a self-study
programme.

Valuing Diversity in Teams
This learning resource takes familiar aspects of effective teamwork - such as
the stages of team development and personal learning styles - and brings them
right up to date in the context of the diverse workforce.
Produced with BBC Worldwide Learning, this resource highlights
aspects that are often overlooked when considering diversity. As well as
respecting others, whatever their ethnicity, religion, sex, sexual orientation,
physical and mental abilities, it is equally important to afford the same
respect to people's different personal styles, experiences, talents and skills.
Valuing Diversity in Teams helps learners to develop self-awareness
and respect for others. Most importantly it enables them to develop strategies
which harness diversity in order to create high performing teams.
