Compare your view with that of a colleague or others in a small group and debate your main differences in your views. Then, working together, consider how you would:

a legislate against lookism b incorporate opposition to lookism into HR policies and practices c in both cases, what do you think would be the main likely unintended consequences, and how could you overcome them?

Reflect on the lists in the table. What actions could you take as ‘quick wins’ in the short term? How about the medium and long term?
What strategic enablers would be needed?
What are any challenges to responding to these factors?
