Why BAME Nurses Are Struggling To Progress Their Career
BAME staff are disproportionally more likely to face formal HR disciplinary processes compared to White staff, and white applicants are still more likely to be appointed after shortlisting for all posts compared to BAME staff.
BAME communities are disproportionately affected by the coronavirus
Evidence is emerging of how black, Asian and minority ethnic (BAME) communities are being disproportionately affected. Despite making up only 14% of the population, one study has shown that we account for a third of critically ill coronavirus patients in our hospitals.
It’s an uncomfortable truth that people from ethnic minority backgrounds are overrepresented in poor, overcrowded accommodation, or households with multiple generations under one roof. Many simply don’t have the luxury of being able to work safely from home during the lockdown.
Among all staff employed by the NHS, BAME account for approximately 21 per cent, including approximately 20 per cent among nursing and support staff and 44 per cent among medial staff.
BAME individuals account for 63 per cent, 64 per cent and 95 per cent of deaths in the same staff groups
