Diversity & Equal Opportunities
Equal opportunities for everyone
Our Equal Opportunities Policy doesn't just cover our
recruitment and selection procedures, but runs right through
training and development, appraisal, promotion opportunities and
eventually to retirement.
We place a lot of emphasis on developing initiatives and
procedures that ensure equality of opportunity for every member of
the Evander team. All the decisions we make relating to employment
practices are objective, free from bias and based solely upon work
criteria and individual merit.
It is our policy to:
Promote a working environment free from discrimination,
harassment and victimisation on the basis of:
- gender, sexual orientation, marital or civil partnership
status, gender reassignment
- race, colour, nationality, ethnic or national origin
- hours of work
- religious or political beliefs
- disability
- age.
We ensure that our workers are not disadvantaged in any aspect
of our employment policies or working practices unless justified as
necessary for operational reasons.
In every set of circumstances we aim to find a solution that
takes account of an individual's personal circumstances and the
needs of the business.
We also recognise that it may be necessary to make reasonable
adjustments to ensure that disabled workers or applicants are not
placed at a substantial disadvantage by a practice or policy that
exists at Evander.
We're committed to continually reviewing the application of
internal policy and we aim to raise staff awareness by designing
and delivering training programmes that support the Equal
Opportunities aims.
We will comply with the law and communicate to our stakeholders
the responsibility to protect both individuals and the company.
