I'm looking at a new gender reassignment Equality and Diversity policy for a
vast government department. I have a week or so to return my comments.
The document includes some policy statements and a FAQ. The policy
statements are sound but limited, and very oriented towards traditional
trans narratives. The FAQ is obviously based on somebody trying very hard
with limited knowledge of the subject, and again oriented towards
traditional or "standard" trans narratives. Because I'm an early modern
historian and not a gender specialist, I can add FAQ questions query policy
statements based on my own experience and that of the people I know or know
about. I am, however, hoping that the collective wisdom of this list will
know of a resource for developing employers' gender reassignment policy in
the context of Equality and Diversity policy.
So my request is: is there such a resource?
Thanks,
Nettie
