Whilst staff networks accomplish various functions that include providing the opportunity of social interaction, peer support and personal development, we also believe that it is at the heart of the development of University Policies and Working Practices.
We recognise the value that self-organised groups have in creating the right environment, respecting the diversity of staff and enabling them to gain maximum benefit and enjoyment from their involvement in the life of the University.
BAME
All Black, Asian and Minority Ethnic (BAME) staff members of the University of Wolverhampton are welcome to participate in the BAME Staff Network Group.
LGBT
The LGBT group is a formal mechanism for enabling lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgendered employees to come together to share information and support.
Disability
The purpose of this network is to promote improved working conditions for disabled staff, share good practice in recruitment and support and to act as a consultation forum.
Women's Staff Network
The Women's Staff Network works with the University to ensure that it addresses the unique challenges that women face within higher education, and more broadly tackles gender inequalities through projects such as Athena SWAN.
