Health services are among the worst employers for gay, lesbian and transgender staff, according to the campaign group Stonewall--some nurses have even been assaulted because of their sexuality. But now there is a commitment to reform. The RCN's OUT! group was established to help nurses who face prejudice because of their sexuality. The introduction of civil partnerships is a major step forward in reducing legal discrimination.
据活动组织“石墙”称，医疗服务行业是同性恋、双性恋和跨性别员工最糟糕的雇主之一——一些护士甚至因为性取向而遭到攻击。但现在有了改革的承诺。皇家护理学院的“出柜”组织成立的目的是帮助那些因性取向而面临偏见的护士。民事伴侣关系的引入是减少法律歧视方面向前迈出的重要一步。
