Clarets Gain Premier League Equality Award

Burnley Football Club is proud to announce it has achieved the Intermediate Level of the Premier League’s Equality Standard for its ongoing work in the equality and diversity space.

Since securing the initial Preliminary Standard level in May 2018, the club’s Equality Working Group has been working hard to achieve the next level of the League’s equality framework.

All Premier League clubs, and some EFL clubs, are currently working towards achieving the Standard. Throughout the process, clubs submit extensive evidence to show that they are meeting a range of equality-related requirements. These requirements become progressively more challenging as clubs advance through the three levels of achievement.
