The table sets out the number of Government Equalities Office employees, within each performance category, who have declared a disability. The Department for Culture, Media and Sport (DCMS) takes seriously its obligations to collect diversity data as required by the Equality Act 2010. All staff have been asked to provide personal diversity data to be held anonymously, and we continue to encourage increased declaration by staff. As such these figures will not be fully representative of workforce diversity

The figure given in the tables are for staff completing a 2013/14 performance report as part of the DCMS Employment Policy Performance Management System. The GEO headcount for staff covered by this system at 31 March 2014 was 50: this included staff who had recently transferred to DCMS (GEO) from other Government Departments, or had recently returned to DCMS (GEO) after e.g. maternity leave, and are therefore excluded from the total shown.
