Race Inequality in the Workforce: Analysing the state of play in the coronavirus economy
The impact of Covid-19 on the labour market has affected specific groups of workers more than others, including those with an ethnic minority background. In this new report, we explore evidence that shows the specific impact that the pandemic has had on Black and ethnic minority workers, demonstrating the ways in which they face a range of additional risks during the economic downturn, in terms of both loss of employment and poorer quality work.
The report makes 11 recommendations for government and employers to ensure that job quality is protected for all and that groups at particular risk are safeguarded.
This short report complements our Good Work for Wellbeing in the Coronavirus Economy report which was launched last month. It seeks to understand how we can ensure the best possible jobs recovery and achieve good work for all in the coronavirus economy.
