Equality

We believe all our members have the right to equality of opportunity wherever they work across the civil service and related areas.

Some members need support overcoming discrimination and particular challenges in the workplace and the wider world and we’re here for you. For support contact your PCS rep whose details you can find on PCS Digital.

Communications with members based on their protected characteristics is important in PCS so we can promote positive action in the workplace, regions and nations.

You can now update your equality data via the link below or by scanning the QR code. You will also have the option to register your interest to receive direct communications based on your protected characteristic(s) and/or register your interest to join your PCS Region or Nation equality network.  

Update your equality data

We want to see more people getting involved in our union to make it look more like you. Our 5 national equality forums are devoted to working for women, black, disabled, young, and LGBT+ members. They aim to meet at least 3 times a year, with a remit to advise the national executive on policy and to exchange information and identify areas for guidance. For more information on what each forum does and how you can get involved, use the tiles below. Not a member? Join PCS online today.
