SAWEI: The Index

SAWEI is the Forum’s long-term workplace equality benchmark

SAWEI, the South African Workplace Equality Index, is the Forum’s flagship benchmark for LGBT+ workplace inclusion. It provides a structured way for participating organisations to assess how their policies, systems, governance, benefits, culture, learning, supplier practices and customer-facing processes support LGBT+ inclusion.

SAWEI is a long-term framework. Individual reports are cycle outputs. Each report reflects the evidence, cohort and context of a specific cycle. The methodology may evolve as law, evidence, workplace practice and community needs evolve, but the core purpose remains stable: to help organisations understand whether stated inclusion is translated into systems, evidence and consistent practice.

Resources directory

Curated resources for workplace inclusion

This directory is intended to help organisations, professionals, researchers and community stakeholders find practical material related to LGBT+ workplace inclusion, institutional practice, research, reporting and public-interest learning.

Resources listed here are reviewed before publication. A listing does not mean that the Forum endorses, verifies, guarantees or accepts responsibility for external resources, services, organisations or websites.

The public resources directory is being prepared. Submitted resources will appear here only after review and approval.

The Forum publishes reports, tools, explainers and reference material for organisations, professionals, partners, researchers and community stakeholders working on LGBT+ inclusion.

Please contact us at sawei@lgbtforum.org for report and framework queries, or contact@lgbtforum.org for general resource requests.
