The guidance attached below has been developed to supplement the Gender Equality Duty Code of Practice in England and Wales.
In order to ensure you are meeting the legal requirements of the duty, you should use the Code of Practice as your primary source of guidance.
There are several other pieces of guidance which you may also find helpful in implementing the duty:
- developing gender equality objectives and a gender equality scheme
- consultation
- gender impact assessment
- gathering and using information
- procurement and employment

Note: The guidance above is available as a Portable Document Format (PDF) file and therefore requires a suitable reader to view it. A reader can be downloaded free from the Adobe website (full instructions for downloading the reader are provided on the site).
