Staff Annual Diversity Report 2012

The University of Nottingham’s Commitment to Diversity

The University's aim is to attract, retain and motivate high quality individuals and to provide

equality of opportunity in order to maximise the benefit to the University from the diversity of

its workforce and student population. Diversity expresses itself in many ways - by age, gender,

race, culture, physical and mental ability, religion - and these differences are celebrated. We

aim to maximise everyone’s potential by harnessing these differences and creating a

productive environment in which all are valued; where our talents are fully utilised and organisational goals are achieved.

The University’s senior management team is committed to the diversity agenda. Head of

Schools and Departments have been working with Human Resources Advisers on the delivery of a number of diversity targets.

Purpose

In support of this commitment this report documents and summaries key trends in relation to

the University’s performance in the areas of equality and diversity, with an aim of highlighting

successes and informing the planning process to target areas where improvements should be

made. The report focuses on performance trends in four main areas:

University staff profile

Recruitment and selection

Staff recognition and reward

Staff promotion and re-grading

In addition to the trend data described above, this report also presents an opportunity to

summarise the main activities over the previous year and set out broad areas of activity

planned for the coming year (with detailed commitments and targets contained in the various

action plans associated with the equality schemes).

Summary of monitoring – key trends and issues

The detailed data can be found from page 7, but the key findings are:

Profile

There has been a slight increase in the overall number of people employed at the University,

but no major changes in the organisational profile. The university remains a particularly

popular employer for individuals identifying as Chinese/ Chinese British, with 3.3% of staff

identifying this way. This compares with only 0.6% of the Nottingham population (and 0.5% of

England’s) at the 2001 census.

There has been little progress towards increasing the number of declared disabled staff, which

remains significantly below the target of 4%.

Recruitment

Overall the pattern of recruitment is stable, despite the challenging economic climate. As in

previous years, the University appears to be an attractive employer for women, as application

rates remain high; however the success rates of BME and disabled candidates remains an issue

of concern.

Page 5 of 95

Recognition and reward

Although the University hopes that the revised PDPR process will start to change some of the

outcomes of performance related pay, 2013 will be the first year in which new objective setting

and assessment processes will have an impact. As in previous years, the current point on the

scale appears to be the most significant correlation to whether an employee will receive an

‘automatic’ increment rather than any protected characteristic.

Diversity Data and Trends

Employee Profile

Employee profile figures are based on a 1st June census date. This is the latest point in the

academic year when sessional staff remain in post. Figures are given by headcount, unless

otherwise stated. Trends in the employee profile are considered over the last three years.

Gender

The graph below shows that the gender balance of the University is fairly even with the

University employing slightly more women than men. Over the last 3 years the University staff

numbers have continued to grow steadily whilst maintaining its equally balanced gender

distribution.

Ethnicity

The ethnicity profile of the University continues to be representative of the Nottingham East

Midlands Area (comparable data taken from the 2001 Census).

The University population is largely white (85%) compared with (81%) for the wider

Nottingham area. However 3.6% of the university population has an unknown ethnicity.

Ethnicity Profile

Within the ethnic minority group the university population does have a significantly higher

representation of Chinese, Chinese British (25%) compared with a local comparative

population of (6%) This could be due to the international presence of the University in the

Chinese Asia region. All other Ethnic groups remain comparable with the local area however

Other and Mixed are slightly lower than their local comparator.

Disability

Just fewer than 2% of University employees have declared a disability, showing a minor

increase from 2011. This is still some way short of the 2014/2015 target of 4% referenced in

the 2010-2015 University plan and therefore will require some focus over the coming years.

The University has show a slight improvement from 2011 in reducing the Unknown category

from 6.8% to 6.3%.

Age

The age profile of University employees continues to show a good balanced distribution

compared to the working population of the local area, As you would expect in an academic

environment 16-24 are underrepresented due to the complexity of the work performed by the

institution. However this proportion of under representation in one area is equally distributed

throughout the other age groups. Future changes in the retirement age legislation may see an

impact in the +65 category compared to previous years.

Mode of Employment – Full/Part-time

The University recognises the needs of staff to balance their work commitments with that of

family, parental and other responsibilities. In order to remain competitive in the employment

market place the university has adopted a number of family-friendly policies that enable a

more flexible way of working for both the employer and employee to ensure it can maximise

the contribution from its workforce.

As a result of this commitment 29% of University’s workforce work part-time hours. This trend

has remained consistent over the last 3 years.

Although flexible working arrangements are available to both male and female employees, as

with the majority of employers, flexible working arrangements are requested and worked in

the main by female employees. The proportion of part- time workers has remained the same

as in 2011 with a minimal change in the gender breakdown, 42% of women and 15% of men

Age

Apart from the highest age group +65 where there is a significantly smaller data set, part-time

working is evenly distributed throughout the majority of age groups. The lowest proportion of

part-time employment occurs in the 25-34 age bracket at 21% where the majority of staff are

starting their careers. The trend shows that the proportions have remained consistent between

2010 and 2012.

Ethnicity

A significantly higher proportion of ethnic minority / unknown staff are employed on fixed-term

contracts compared to white employees. This reflects the higher use of fixed-term contracts

and higher number of employees from ethnic minority groups in research and teaching

occupations.

Age

A higher proportion of employees over 65 (38%) and employees aged 25-34 are employed on

a fixed-term basis (44%) than other age bands. In most age groups the proportion of

employees who are employed on a fixed-term basis was consistent. An exception to this is the

over 65 group where the data set is small and the numbers suggest that a significant

proportion of permanent employee retired between 2008 and 2009. Age 24-34 also marks the

period for the commencement of academic careers, particularly in research focussed roles

which also tend to be funded through short term grants from Research Councils.

Gender

Although the overall proportions of female staff have remained the same as last year, the

gender profile by level within the organisation continues to show a decrease in the proportion

of female employees as the grade level increases. The University Plan 2010-2015 sets a target

of 33% of female staff in senior roles (levels 6 and 7) by 2014/2015. Although year on year

since 2009 the proportion of female staff at senior levels has shown small improvements, this

is an area where continued focus is required.

Ethnicity

There continues to be a higher concentration of ethnic minority employees at levels 1 and 4

within the organisation than at the other levels. These anomalies are due to a large proportion

of black and black British staff in level 1 roles and a large proportion of Chinese / Chinese

British staff in Level 4 roles.

Occupational Staff Group

The occupational groups for the University are represented as follows:

APM: Administrative, Professional & Managerial

C&M: Clinical & Medical-Related

CCS: Childcare Services

O&F: Operations & Facilities

R&T: Research & Teaching

TS: Technical Services

The occupational groups used are based on the University job families. Where a

member of staff is not in one of the job families, they have been allocated to the

most appropriate job family grouping or the clinical and medical-related staff

group. The largest occupational staff group is research and teaching with 44% of

staff, followed by administrative, professional and managerial staff, who

constitute 30%. The proportion of staff in these staff groups has remained

constant over the past three years. The proportion of staff in the other groups

has remained constant with only minor changes.

Gender

Whilst overall the University has an even gender balance, there are clear signs of

occupational segregation by gender with women representing three quarters of

Administrative, Professional and Managerial and 100% of Childcare Services

employees. Conversely, 71% of clinical and medical-related staff, 58% of

research and teaching staff and 62% of technical services employees are male.

The operations and facilities staff group is the most gender balanced with 52%

female and 48% male.

The gender balance in all areas has remained pretty consistent year on year over

the last 3 years.

Ethnicity

There is also evidence of occupational segregation by ethnicity, with a

considerably higher proportion of ethnic minority staff in clinical and medical,

research and teaching and operations and facilities roles than in administrative,

professional and managerial or technical services roles. In all of the occupational

staff groups, the proportion of ethnic minority staff between 2010 and 2012

remains quite consistent.

Senior Research and Teaching Posts

There was no change in the number of female staff in senior research positions from 2011 to

2012. The proportion of 27% for 2011 has remained the same in 2012. This is still some way

off the 2014/2015 target of 33% and therefore will require some focus over the coming years.

Recruitment

Recruitment monitoring is based on vacancy closing dates occurring in the University financial

year of 1 August 2011 to 31 July 2012. These figures only refer to centralised recruitment.

Centralised recruitment does not cover most research, operations and facilities and technical

services roles.

Gender

The proportions of male and female applying for roles within the University continues to reflect

the overall proportion of male and female staff currently employed, with a slightly higher

proportion of female applicants at 52%. However it would also appear that, as candidates

progress through the selection process, the proportion of males being shortlisted compared to

the proportion applying decreases slightly from 47% to 44%. Job offered figures are not

available at this time.

Ethnicity

The University continues to attract a higher proportion of applications from ethnic minority

staff compared to the ethnicity demographic for the local area. However, a proportion of these

applications are as a result of online international candidates who do not possess the relevant

qualifications for the post, or who require a work permit and have applied for positions where a

work permit cannot be obtained without first demonstrating that national recruitment has been

unsuccessful. This accounts for the fact that the proportion of ethnic minority candidates drops

significantly from the numbers applied to those shortlisted.

Promotions

The academic promotions process is based on individual merit, rather than organisational

change or structural requirements – it is in effect a standard to be met rather than a vacancy

to be filled; whereas the regarding process is intended as a correction mechanism where the

requirements of a role have changed over time; so although they are grouped together in this

report they are not analogous processes.

The promotions monitoring is based on the period 2011-2012 and covers promotions in the

academic job family.

Regrading

The regrading process is available to those staff in the APM and TS job families and is carried

out with reference to the Hay analytical job evaluation scheme implemented at the University.

This process recognises changes in an individual’s role that have already occurred.

This year, female staff were more successful in the regrading process.

The very small numbers of declared disabled staff make it very difficult to draw meaningful

conclusions from the data.

Training

Introduction:

Equality and Diversity training, delivered by the University’s Professional Development Unit,

supports implementation of the University Staff Equality and Diversity Strategy, including the

promotion of good relations, across a wide range of activities. To achieve these aims, the Unit

provides a range of training and development opportunities including:

Equal Opportunity and Disability Workshops offered as part of the Central Short Course

Programme (Appendix 1)

A range of programmes, specialist sessions and central short course programme

workshops with clear equality and diversity content identified through an audit of

provision 2011. This includes ‘Teaching a Diverse Audience’ sessions for Postgraduate

Certificate of Education, Associate Teachers Programme and Intensive Learning and

Teaching Programmes (appendix 2).

Two online learning packages (available to all staff) entitled ‘Managing Diversity’ and a

‘Diversity in Learning and Teaching’.

One hour Equality and Diversity update sessions for schools, delivered by Professional

Development and Funding for ‘Drama for Training’ sessions for specific schools

This report identifies:

1. Attendance, over the period 2010-12, at workshops with a specific equality and

diversity focus by job family, gender and age.

2. Attendance over the period 2010-12 at any central short course programme by job

family, gender and age.

3. Analysis against other relevant KPIs: Recruitment and selection training for managers;

Positive action programmes; NVQs; School-based update sessions.

KPI: Monitoring and evaluation of relevant training to be published annually

Overview

Professional Development offers specific Equal Opportunity and Disability Workshops offered as

part of the Central Short Course Programme (Appendix 1). Additionally in the academic year

2011-2012 has carried out an internal audit of all Central Short Course programmes and

development programmes to identify where equality and diversity-relevant material is included

within the broader provision (Appendix 2).

Both of these sources have been used to identify attendance at relevant training, referred to in

this report as training with an equality and diversity focus. Data has been drawn from a two

year period, 2012-11 and 2011-12, and where possible trends identified. This particular two

year period has been selected as the Central Short Course database went live on 1st October

2010 and so reporting is uniform across this period. Data has been presented from the data

fields within the database.

There is no disaggregation by disability or ethnicity as connection between resource-link and

Dante (central short course programme database) is on the IS development schedule, and not

easily available. PD intend to publish data in these categories in future reports.

Analysis

This section identifies attendance, over the 2010-2012 period, at workshops with a specific

Total Attendance

Over the 2010-12 period, there has been an upward trend in the number of individuals

attending sessions which are specifically equality and diversity sessions, or are equality and

diversity relevant.

In 2010/11 711 staff attended such training. In the 2011/12 period 1003 staff attended

Breakdown by job family

Broadly this data set appears to indicate that in any single job family approximately

20% of staff are attending equality and diversity relevant sessions. For example in

2011-12 369 staff from the APM job family attended at least one session from a total of

2,156 staff within the job family (representing 18%).

Across job families there is some variation in percentage attendance but difference is

relatively small when comparing 2010-11 with 2011-12, with the exception of the

Research and Teaching job family.

Attendance across the Research and Teaching job family has changed, with significantly

larger numbers in grades from 4 upwards.

Breakdown by Gender

There is a clear trend in attendance by gender in that across both years a greater number of

female staff than male staff attended equality relevant training. Approximately one third more

women than men attend these equality-relevant sessions. This is likely to have been

influenced by the gender distribution of the job families with the largest attendance by job

family (APM2; APM3 and RT4-R in 2011-12)

Breakdown by Age

All age groups between 23 and 66 are represented in staff attending equality relevant training

sessions, with peaks between the 30 to 50 age range. This is likely to reflect the overall profile

of staff distribution by age.

KPI2: Monitoring attendance at development programmes by job

family, gender, and age

Total Attendances

This data indicates that a static proportion of the UK staff population attend central short

course sessions. During the 2010-11 period 3,474 staff attended at least one session. In total

9,130 training places were attended. During the 2011-12 period 3,122 staff attended at least

one session, and in total 9,176 training places were attended.

Breakdown by job family

Broadly this data set indicates that staff from across the range of job families attend central

short course training. The majority of attendees are from the APM and R&T job families,

reflecting the overall spread of staff across the institution.

During the 2010-11 period a total of 1,497 APM staff attended at least one training session

(from a total of 2,156); 1,375 R&T staff attended at least one training session (from a total of

2,633). During the 2011-12 period these periods were respectively 1,391 and 1,207.

Other KPIs

Recruitment & selection training for Managers

Attendance at recruitment and selection training is growing from a small base of 11 attendees

during the 2010-11 period and 64 in the 2011-12 period. The Agreed reporting date for

‘Recruitment and selection training implemented for all recruiters’ is July 2014, which

Professional Development are working towards in partnership with HR. Analysis in greater

depth will be available for the 2013 report, building towards complete data set for this KPI in

2014.

Positive action programmes

PEAR, WAND and City & Guilds programmes – these programmes have been included

within KPI1 (Attendance, over the period 2010-12, at workshops with a specific equality and

diversity focus by job family, gender and age).

APPLE – The APPLE programme is evaluated through a long-term evaluation, the latest of

which was completed by the 2009-10 cohorts. This reports that, on a scale of strongly agree

to strongly disagree, 60% of participants agree that the course was relevant to their work,

80% agree that learning on the course was transferable to work, 70% agree that they had the

opportunity to use what they learnt on the course, 65% agree that the course has helped

improve performance in the areas covered by the course.

NVQs – Between 2010 and 2012 23 members of staff have completed a level 3 NVQ, and 23

completed a level 2 NVQ.

Future action 2: Data relating to participants is managed by the delivering college and PD are

investigating ways to include more equality relevant data within reporting mechanisms.

School-based update sessions

The following Schools have undertaken specific update sessions during the academic year

2011-12:

1. Internal Audit

2. Pharmacy

3. Nursing

4. English Studies

5. Veterinary Sciences

6. Biosciences

Professional Development have worked with Heads of the following schools to address equality

and diversity issues through drama for training (STEPS):

1. School of Chemistry – 2 sessions, all staff required to attend

2. School of Biology – 1 session, Staff with management responsibility required to attend.

Both Schools have given feedback that this activity has met specific needs and created a more

positive environment for addressing and challenging equality issues. Professional

Development aims to work with other WINSET Schools to identify opportunities for further

targeted training.

Employee Case Work Analysis

Introduction, Methodology & Overall Analysis

1.1 This report is designed to provide Equalities information relating to HR casework

undertaken by managers and supported by HR. This report covers:

1.1.1 Disciplinary Information

1.1.2 Grievance Information

1.1.3 Dignity Complaints

1.2 The statistics provided in this report relate to proceedings which have reached a

formal stage. This includes those proceedings that are raised formally but are

then resolved informally at the formal stage. This report explicitly does not

include information about employees whose disputes were resolved informally

through extensive work by managers, employees and staff.

1.3 The number of disciplinaries and grievances specifically that reach a formal

stage is only a small proportion of the university population (between 1-2% of

the workforce).

1.4 Our information includes those employees of the University who work on any of

the UK campuses. At present, as this information relates solely to UK policy and

procedure, this information does not relate to individuals who work on the

University’s international campuses in China and Malaysia.

1.5 All information included in this report protects the anonymity of all our

employees. At all times, our goal has been to prevent the identity of any

individual becoming explicitly or implicitly apparent. The University has does not

reveal any equality information that would identify a member of staff, or by

which a particular employees personal information would be apparent. This

report therefore provides general top line statistics in order to assess our

current position against our Equalities Objectives, monitor general trends in line

with the Equalities act, and inform policy development within the University as a

whole.

1.6 This report includes information on all cases that either commenced or

concluded between 1st August 2009 - 31st July 2012. Those individuals who

lodged a dignity issue during this period are also recorded and analysed below.

1.7 The information presented in the Disciplinary Section is used to highlight cases

against individuals by the University. The information provided in the Grievance

Section highlights complaints made by individuals to the university. Finally,

information provided in the Dignity Complaints section details any harassment,

bullying or discrimination complaints made by an employee against another

Page 77 of 95

staff member to the University.

1.8 Employees who were the subject of a dignity complaint that has been accepted

as valid by the university may then count in the disciplinary section of this

report if formal action was taken against them.

1.9 The Equalities information used in this report is correct as at the 20th September

2012.l

1.10 The data for this report was assembled by HR Advisers, Employment Services

Advisers (HR Case Workers) and Assistant Advisers during a three week period

in September 2012 using spreadsheets. This information was then collated, and

populated with Equalities Information by the HR Systems & Management

Information Team (PAPS).

1.11 The data contained in this report therefore only contains information received by

this team by the 20th September 2012.

1.12 The point of contact for any queries on this report in HR Systems &

Management Information is Jonathan Sneade

([email protected]). The HR Senior Team Contact is Clare

Martlew, Deputy Director of Human Resources

([email protected]).

2.4 Hearing Outcomes of Disciplinary Proceedings

2.5 Hearings: Outcomes by Disability

Page 80 of 95

The overwhelming majority of disciplinary cases were against staff

declaring themselves without a disability (92.1%). Only 2 cases

(2.6%) were involving people declaring a disability to Human Resources.

Both people subjected to a disciplinary procedure who declared disabilities

were dismissed during the period. It is important to note that the

sample size here is extremely small and assumptions based on this

should be avoided.

2.6 Hearings: Outcomes by Gender

Points to note: 26.3% of men subjected to a disciplinary procedure were dismissed at the

hearing stage.

52.6% of women subjected to a disciplinary procedure were dismissed at

the hearing stage (a difference of 19.2%).

Fewer females were subjected to a formal disciplinary procedure

than males during the period. 25% of cases (19) involved female staff.
