The Treasury does not hold the data in the form requested and only retains records for staff completing unconscious bias training who still work at the organisation. These records do not capture either staff who attend unconscious bias training as part of their induction (which includes all staff below SCS who have joined the organisation since 2016, and SCS since 2018). The figures we hold will therefore be an underestimate – but they show the following attendance for staff who are still working in the organisation:
