Workplace Overview - Governing Bodies

1.4 Identify your organisation/s' governing body or bodies

Governing bodies are the group of people who formulate policy and direct the affairs of an institution in partnership with the managers. The core role of a governing body is the governance of an organisation. Governing bodies:

  • include voluntary boards of not-for-profit organisations
  • are not a diversity council or committee
  • are not a global diversity and inclusion team.

Some organisations have common types of governing bodies. For:

  • private or publicly listed companies - the governing body is one or more directors or a board of directors
  • trusts - the governing body is the trustee
  • partnerships - the governing body will be all or some partners (if they are elected)
  • religious structures - the governing body is a canonical advisor, bishop or archbishop
  • any other structure - the governing body is the management committee.

If you share a governing body with your parent organisation, then your governing body is the same as your parent's

You are required to provide details of each organisation's governing body. A governing body is defined as the one that has primary responsibility for the organisation's governance. As such, you must only report one governing body for each organisation covered in this report. Please note:

  • You must tick the organisation/s this governing body relates to.
  • If there are multiple organisations covered in this report you must tick all that relate to this particular governing body.
  • If this governing body does not cover all organisations, you should add another governing body after saving this one.
  • If you have already ticked an organisation in another governing body in this report, you must not tick it again below.
