Under the ‘Transitioning at Work and Gender Diversity Policy’, staff are told it is transphobic to ‘deliberately use the name a Trans colleague had prior to transition’. They are also told it is offensive to ask a trans or non-binary person questions such as ‘which bathrooms do you use?’
The policy tells bosses that employees who identify as a different gender should be allowed to use alternative changing rooms and showers, even if they have no plans to medically transition.
It reads: ‘Managers must not make supportive comments such as ‘I understand your concerns’ to staff who, for example, complain about Trans or Non-Binary colleagues having access to gendered spaces.
