We are committed to providing equality of opportunity in our employment practices. We also accept and value individual difference.

The importance of this is reflected in our Equality & Diversity Policy and Dignity at Work Policy. All employees are expected to understand their rights and obligations as described in these documents. They are also reflected in our value base (Working together, Respect, Integrity, Solution Focussed and Excellence) and our competency framework. If you are successfully appointed to a role here, you will be expected to act in accordance with these policies, so why not take a minute to look over them now.

We also monitor the effectiveness of these policies and the health of our working environment. This is achieved through a number of initiatives including the use of Equality & Diversity Monitoring at recruitment, running a Your Views Count annual employee opinion survey and diversity monitoring of our employee population.
