Resumen
[EN]A preliminary reading of the human resources management legal framework applicable to
Civil Servants working for the EU Institutions (EU HRM Legal Framework) shows a
language which is not cohesive and does not substantiate the principles of equality and
diversity as underpinned by the European Union’s core values. This research examines the
linguistic features of the EU HRM Legal Framework by exploring the features related to
equality and diversity included in the applicable staff legal rules and provisions. The
methodological approach of this research entails the creation and analysis of a unique corpus
composed of all the applicable HR legal provisions in force in the EU Institutions, and the
examination of the terminology related to equality and diversity in four different areas –
gender, LGBTI, persons with a disability and elderly. An analysis of the Discourse of the EU
HRM Legal Framework deepens the finding of the Corpus research, and the analysis of a
questionnaire for HR and Legal Officers working for the different Institutions complements
the data, with the aim of triangulating the research findings. The research concludes with
highlights of the possible improvements to the language used in the EU HRM legal
framework, to the extent necessary for fostering equality and diversity principles.
