A Guide for Managers Supporting Lesbian, Gay and Bi Staff - June 2013 Reviewed: September 2020, January 2024

Welcome to the Guide

Carmarthenshire County Council is fully committed to equality of opportunity and promoting diversity. Our organisation values all staff regardless of their sexual orientation. Furthermore, we aim to create an environment in which all staff, whatever their sexuality are equally welcomed and valued, and in which homophobic, bi-phobic and other discriminatory behaviour is not tolerated.

This guide is aimed at managers who have lesbian, gay or bi (LGB) staff in their teams. The aim is to support managers with their responsibility for developing an inclusive culture in their workplace and providing the appropriate support to their LGB team members.

This guidance should be read in conjunction with the Equality and Diversity Policy.
