  • Greens' BAME Manifesto
    WORK There is a looming crisis in unemployment among young BAME people. Figures from the House of Commons Library show that in 2014 there were 41,000 long term unemployed 16- to 24-year- olds from Black, Asian and Minority Ethnic communities, which is a 50% rise from 2010. As a whole BAME workers are almost twice as likely as white workers to be unemployed.1 There is also a growing body of evidence to suggest employers, particularly private sector employers, are filtering out applicants with foreign-sounding names2, while many workplaces report a lack of opportunity for career progression for BAME staff including the NHS,3 the police,4 and academia.5 To address these issues the Green Party would: • Progressively introduce anonymised CVs so fewer female and BAME candidates are screened out before the interview stage. • Introduce a mandatory living wage of £10 an hour by 2020, so BAME workers are lifted out of workplace poverty. • Enforce the minimum wage by law and more actively police breaches. • Strengthen workers’ rights and trade unions so workers can more actively fight against discrimination in the workplace. • End exploitative zero hours contracts which trap BAME workers in insecure low paid work. • Pursue stronger recruitment drives for BAME workers in the public sector. • Reduce Employment Tribunal fees so that workers facing racism can afford to seek justice and recompense. • Increase funding for apprenticeships by 30% to help deliver more opportunities for young people. Green councillors have worked hard in providing job opportunities for BAME people. Former Councillor Maya De Souza in Camden worked hard to address council cuts which were disproportionately affecting BAME employees whilst entrenching a lack of diversity at the top of the council.
