DEI Policy Review & Process Audit
MindTribes‘ DEI Policy Review & Process Audit services helps organisations identify structural barriers and areas for improvement within your DEI policies and processes.
What are DEI policies and processes?
DEI Policies and Processes should be reviewed and audited regularly. It involves examining an organisation’s existing policies and processes to identify gaps, barriers, and opportunities for improvement. This comprehensive review ensures that DEI principles are effectively integrated into all aspects of the organisation, from recruitment and promotion to complaints handling and management.
Through our DEI Policy Review & Process Audit services, our diversity consultants help organisations clarify areas of improvement in their DEI strategy and policies, ensuring that structural barriers are addressed and processes are inclusive and fair.

Case Study
A Victorial local government engaged MindTribes to revise internal policies to promote equality and non-discrimination. The goal was to identify gaps and update policies to reflect current legislative requirements (including the Gender Equality Act 2020 and the Local Government Act 2020) and best practices, fostering an inclusive and equitable workplace.
MindTribes, together with our policy expert partner We Are Charlotte, undertook mapping existing policies, consulting with subject matter experts, and conducting a thorough gap analysis. Policies were revised or newly drafted based on findings and stakeholder input. Workshops with marginalised communities were held to gather feedback, which was then incorporated into the final policies.
The revised policies provided a robust framework aligned with best practices and legislative requirements, promoting equality within the local municipality. The engagement with marginalised communities ensured the policies were inclusive, addressing diverse employee needs. The comprehensive review ensured compliance with relevant legislation, reducing legal risks and fostering a culture of compliance. The consultative approach built strong engagement and ownership among stakeholders. The Policy Review and Process Audit by MindTribes enhanced the the local government’s policy framework, promoting inclusivity and compliance.
