In 2016 a Women and Equalities Committee report made over 30 recommendations calling for government action to ensure full equality for trans people.
One of the report’s recommendations was that the use of the terms ‘gender reassignment’ and ‘transsexual’ in the Equality Act 2010 are outdated and misleading, something that we fully agree with. The preferred umbrella term is trans.
However, the advice and guidance on this page applies to current law and therefore uses the terms referred to in the Equality Act 2010.
We suggest employers and service providers consider the recommendations in this report when setting their trans policies. This will help to make sure they are preventing discrimination and disadvantage to people who are trans
