Male - An individual self-identifying as a man, not exclusively cisgender individuals. Non-binary - An individual self-identifying as having a gender that falls outside the categories of male or female, e.g., two (or more) genders, non-gendered, gender fluid, gender non-conforming or otherwise non male or female. * Cisgender (sometimes cissexual or shortened to cis) describes a person whose gender identity corresponds to their sex assigned at birth. Ethnic Minority – The Bank uses the 2022 Scottish Census data to define an ethnic minority as all individuals who do not identify as White (Scottish) or White (British). See: Scotland’s Census 2022 - Ethnic group, national identity, language and religion | Scotland's Census Disability – The Bank uses the 2010 Equalities Act definition of disability. You are disabled under the Equality Act 2010 if you have a physical or mental impairment that has a ‘substantial’ and ‘long-term’ negative effect on your ability to do normal daily activities. Socio-economic disadvantage - Being 'socio-economically disadvantaged' means living in less favourable social and economic circumstances than others in the same society, which can result in inequalities of outcomes.
