Who we are
The EASS is a helpline that advises and assists individuals on issues relating to the Equality Act 2010 and the Human Rights Act 1998. We are the only helpline in the UK that provides informal non-legal advice in line with these legislations.

You will be the first point of contact for individuals who are seeking to understand their rights under the Equality Act 2010 and Human Rights Act 1998 across various communication channels (telephone, email, webchat, letter).
You will receive in-depth training to understand both legislations so that you can help our customers informally resolve their complaints without the need to go to court. You will ensure our customers receive a professional service, get the support they need, and ultimately help people on every call.

What's involved

● Write to or telephone external organisations on behalf of customers and keep the customer updated on this process.
● Identify any cases that may be strategic in nature, and update these accordingly.
● Adhere to the minimum target call and communication levels and standards as set by the company.
