Multifaith Calendars

We have a diverse group of trainees who practice a number of different faiths. How can we be inclusive when rostering?

What we did

HEE NE realised this was an increasing concern as set about establishing support to rota co-ordinators. Our ‘2021 Multifaith Calendar’, ‘Year Planner’ and accompanying ‘Faith Summaries’ have been created in collaboration with religious individuals. These resources are designed to support healthcare professionals to have conversations with their trainers, those in workforce scheduling and rota planning to increase awareness of important religious events and promote understanding of wider cultural and spiritual needs. Our ambition is to enable a workplace that understands, celebrates, and supports us all. 

This work has now been shared nationally as an example of good practice and is available on the MADEinHEENE website.
