Reports and campaigns:

The Trades Union Congress, working with Mary Ann Stephenson at Coventry Women's Voices, have prepared a Women and the Cuts Toolkit. This can be used by trade unions, community groups, voluntary organisations and others to assess the human rights and equality impact of the spending cuts on women in their communities.

The TUC have also put together an Equality Duty Toolkit aimed at helping trade union negotiators to understand the new public sector equality duty and how they can best make use of it. A TUC Guide to Equality Law 2011 is also available as a useful reference for anyone interested in equality at work.
