Question
To ask the Minister for Women and Equalities, with reference to the Answer of 23 February 2024 to Question 13812 on Cabinet Office: Staff, how many staff in the Equality Hub have job titles which include the words (a) equality, (b) diversity, (c) inclusion, (d) gender, (e) LGBT and (f) race.
Answered by

Parliamentary Under-Secretary of State (Department for Education) (Equalities)
The Office for Equality and Opportunity (formerly the Equality Hub) currently has 180 staff members. The Office for Equality and Opportunity leads on Government policy in these areas and is organised into sub-teams. The sub-team names themselves include some of the requested keywords, though individual job titles are generic. The relevant sub-teams and headcounts are:
| Sub team | Headcount |
| OEO Central | 63 |
| LGBT Policy | 18 |
| Equality Framework Team | 19 |
| Social Mobility Commission | 20 |
| Women's Equality Division | 23 |
| Disability Unit | 25 |
| Race Equality Unit | 12 |
Some of the keywords (equality, gender, LGBT and race) are contained within some of the sub-team names but not all staff members will have a job title which contains one of the defined keywords. Please also note that the Office for Equality and Opportunity does not lead on Civil Service or Cabinet Office diversity and inclusion matters and so these words are not included in job titles.
