Equality and Human Rights

SEPA's statutory purpose is to protect and improve the environment in ways that create economic and social success. Our Equality and human rights approach helps us think about the different needs that people have and the best way to meet their needs. It encourages us to provide our services in ways that meet our customers' needs. It makes it easier for people to work with us to find innovative ways for Scotland to achieve the goals of our regulatory strategy.

Our Equality Mainstreaming and Outcomes Report 2025 shows the high value we place on diversity in our workforce. It also highlights progress against the four equality outcomes we set in 2022. 

Our People Information Report 2025 provides related workforce data.
