It also queried the proportion of staff involved in recruitment who have completed ED&I or unconscious bias training, the availability of training on interview scoring, and how long recruitment records are retained. Additional questions covered the number of grievances raised by BME staff, including those related to race or age discrimination, and the attrition rate at Derby wound clinics, including the percentage of BME staff within that turnover.
