Does Your Planned Positive Action Meet a Legitimate Aim in a Proportionate Way?
This step-by-step tool was created to help establish the legal and appropriate use of identified Positive Action interventions and to provide support in identifying where Positive Action interventions should be implemented.
It was created as a training tool for all colleagues to increase awareness of Positive Action but also as a guidance and aid when thinking of implementing a specific initiative to address a particular issue.
When using this tool bear in mind the following:
