Diversity and Inclusion officers employed by Avon and Somerset Police

Response

The table below shows the number of officers and staff employed by Avon and Somerset Police in roles specifically relating to Diversity and Inclusion, as of 08 June 2026.

 

The information has been presented as recorded, however please note that role of ‘PC Representative Workforce’ has been renamed ‘Inclusion and Diversity Police Officer’.

 

Position Name	Salary Band	Number of Employees
P5726 PC Representative Workforce	£31,164 – £50,256	1
C6158 PO9-12 Div and Inclusion Lead	£50,949 – £54,696	1

 

We have considered whether it would be appropriate to derive and disclose more precise salary or cost information. Given the very small number of individuals in these roles, and the specificity of the positions, disclosure of exact salary figures or costs over time could reasonably enable individuals to be identified, particularly when combined with other information that may be publicly available. This would constitute the disclosure of personal data. Exact cost figures have therefore been withheld under the following exemption:

 

• Section 40(2) – Personal Information

 

Section 40 is a class based, absolute exemption and there is no requirement to consider the public interest in this case. The information has been withheld as it constitutes third party personal data. Disclosure would breach the first data protection principle (lawfulness, fairness and transparency) under the Data Protection Act 2018 and UK GDPR
