Equal Opportunities
This policy will be communicated to staff at interview and via regular team meetings.
Recruitment/Selection/Training/Promotion/Discipline/Dismissal
The Furnishing Service is an Equal Opportunities Employer. The Furnishing Service will ensure that no job applicant or employee is victimised, discriminated against or harassed in respect of any of the above issues on the grounds of gender, race, disability, colour, creed, nationality, ethnic or national origin, marital status, sexuality, responsibility for dependents, religion, trade union activity, and age (up to 65). This behaviour will be deemed to be a disciplinary offence and should it occur the person(s) responsible will be subject to formal disciplinary action.
Selection criteria will be kept under review to ensure that individuals are selected, promoted and treated on the basis of their relative merits and abilities. All employees will be given equality of opportunity and will be encouraged to progress within the organisation.
In order to ensure either direct or indirect discrimination is not occurring, recruitment and other employment decisions will be regularly monitored in conjunction with ethnic records of job applicants and existing employees.
Service Delivery
The Furnishing Service will ensure that all customers (internally and externally) are treated equally irrespective of gender, race, disability, colour, creed, nationality, ethnic or national origin, marital status, sexuality, responsibility for dependents, religion, trades union activity, and age (up to 65).
Should any allegations prove to be founded the employee concerned will be subject to formal disciplinary action which may lead to dismissal.
The provision of a service to specific individuals and communities will be carried out in a manner that is sensitive to their needs and will respect any cultural difference e.g. language difficulties.
Randle Wilson (Managing Director) will be responsible for this policy and its effective communication.
This policy will be reviewed on a regular basis and changed as required.
The company is committed to a programme of action to make this policy fully effective
