The Equal Employment Opportunities Trust's flagship annual event is the EEO Trust Work & Life Awards programme which recognises and rewards employers which support a diverse workforce. This year's gala presentation dinner will be held on Thursday October 30 at the Auckland Museum Dome. A workshop for HR professionals, Diversity in Action, will be held from 10am-2pm at The Heritage on the same day. For more information.

The EEO Trust provides information and tools on EEO and raises awareness of diversity issues in the workplace. We assist employers to introduce and manage proven EEO thinking and practices as well as building understanding of the business benefits of versatile and inclusive workplaces.
