- 13.2.4 Disability equality
13.2.3 Race EqualityTable 13: Proportion of Black and ethnic minority staff
The proportion of staff from Black and ethnic minority groups has risen slightly since 2006/07, bringing the total representation rate to 5%. 
Table 14: Comparison with census data
* Source: 2001 Census (Office for National Statistics) Table 15: Breakdown of staff by Contract Type
Table 15 shows the breakdown of staff by ethnic group and contract type. White staff continue to be comparatively more likely to hold permanent posts than BME staff. Whilst the proportion of hourly paid lecturers and permanent staff with unknown ethnicity has fallen slightly since 2006/2007, the proportion of fixed term staff with unknown ethnicity has risen during the same period. Table 16: Ethnic origin by staff category
*SMT, Deans, Heads, Professors As with previous years, staff from Black and ethnic minority groups continue to be broadly concentrated within academic roles and particularly within research roles. The proportion of senior staff who are from Black or Ethnic minority groups has risen from 2.0% to 2.8% since 2006/2007. Table 17 below provides further breakdown of ethnic minority staff by grade. In most cases the numbers of staff are too small to draw any meaningful conclusions although BME research staff and, to a lesser extent, support staff are generally more heavily represented in the lower grades than compared with the higher grades Table 17: Ethnic origin of staff by grade
13.2.4 Disability equalityTable 18: proportion of staff with disabilities
Table 18 shows that there has been a 0.2% rise in the number of staff declaring themselves to have a disability since 2006/07. There has also been a reduction of 0.6% in the number of staff who have not declared whether or not they have a disability. In December 2006 the university published its Disability Equality Scheme, setting out how it would promote equality for disabled people in order to meet its statutory duties under the Disability Discrimination Act 2005. Amongst the planned action detailed in the scheme was a commitment to carrying out a staff survey to enhance the data and increase reporting on disability. Table 19 below breaks down these statistics into type of disability. Since 2006/07 there has been increases of between 1 and 3 in the numbers of staff who have declared that they have each type of disability, with the exception of the Blind/partially sighted category where the numbers have remained the same over the past year. Table 19: Disability categories
Table 20: Percentage of staff with disabilities, by grade
The proportion of senior staff who have declared a disability has risen by 0.8% since 2006/2007. It is difficult to draw any meaningful conclusions from any further analysis of this data due to the low numbers involved.
