Realization of the first Equality Plan of the Mossèn Josep Bofarull Foundation, an entity that is responsible for managing residences for the elderly and in vulnerable situations.
We are going to carry out this equality plan with the collaboration and commitment of all the Foundation’s staff. We are going to start this whole process with the creation of the equal equality commission, formed by people sensitized to the issue and with a high will for change. In order to broaden their knowledge of gender equality and to bet on the proper functioning of the commission, a training session of approximately four hours was organized for all members of the commission.
Methodology
Methodologically, in the diagnosis phase, not only was a quantitative analysis opted for, but also activities were carried out in the qualitative field:
- Online survey addressed to all staff, where different questions of each of the areas of study of the plan were asked.
- Discussion groups where people from different specialties within the foundation were invited to participate, to be able to talk openly about the situation in terms of equality in the different areas that are studied.
- Personalized interviews with key people of the entity to finish specifying some of the issues that arose throughout the procedure.
Once this diagnosis was made, the equality plan was drafted and all the actions that the entity must carry out during the next four years were configured. At the same time, the entity’s registration and remuneration audit were also carried out.
Finally, a clear and effective monitoring tool was created to make it easier for the equality commission to monitor compliance with the actions proposed in the plan and then evaluate it more easily.
