Collins - An Equal Opportunities Employer
Here at Collins we are committed to a comprehensive policy of Equal Opportunities in employment in which individuals are selected and treated on the basis of their relevant merits and abilities and are given Equal Opportunities within our company. The aim of our policy, detailed below, is to ensure that no job applicant or employee should receive less favourable treatment on any grounds not relevant to good employment practice.
Policy Statement
The Company actively supports the principle of Equal Opportunities in employment and is committed to ensuring that individuals are treated fairly and valued. The Company opposes all forms of unlawful or unfair discrimination on the grounds of colour, race, age, nationality, ethnic or national origin, sex, sexual orientation, marital status or disability.
No one at Collins Debden is to receive less favourable treatment on any of the above grounds or is to be disadvantaged by requirements or conditions, which cannot be shown to be justifiable. To achieve this every possible step will be taken to ensure that individuals are treated equally and fairly and that decisions on recruitment, selection, training and promotion are based solely on objective and job related criteria. The company will provide guidance and training for managers, set up effective but practicable procedures, monitor employment and if necessary take corrective action. Failure to comply with the policy or evidence of discrimination harassment or victimisation will result in disciplinary action, which could lead to dismissal.
In drawing up the policy the Company recognises its legal obligations under the Race Relations Act 1976, the Sex Discrimination Acts 1975 and 1986, the Employment Equality (Age) Regulations 2006, the Equal Pay Act 1970 and Equal Pay Regulations 1983, the Disability Discrimination Act 1995 and the Rehabilitation of Offenders Act 1974. In formulating this policy the Company has taken account of the Codes of Practice issued by the Equal Opportunities Commission and the Commission for Racial Equality.
