1. Principles
Newable welcomes the diversity of its employees and is committed to the principles of diversity,
inclusion and equality of opportunity. We value and promote:
- 1. Attracting employees from all sections of the community
- 2. Identifying, using and developing the skills and talents offered by employees and
potential employees of Newable, to the benefit of individuals and the company
- 3. The awareness that unlawful discrimination is wasteful of skills, talent and creativity.
We recognise the negative impact on employees of the effects of discrimination on achievement of
objectives, personal and company morale, career progression, self-fulfilment and self-esteem.
All employees and those acting on behalf of Newable are personally responsible for upholding
this policy, and must refrain from taking any action or decision which is contrary to the
letter or the spirit of this policy.
The senior person with responsibility for the effective implementation of this policy is the
Chief Executive Officer.
This policy is updated regularly in line with legislation, and reviewed annually.
2. Policy
We seek to ensure that no job applicant or employee receives less favourable treatment on the
grounds of their age, disability, gender reassignment, marriage and civil partnership,
pregnancy and maternity, race, religion or belief, sex or sexual orientation, or any other
unlawfully discriminatory grounds such as trade union membership or part-time working status.
We will not disadvantage applicants, employees or any others working on behalf of the company
by imposing unjustifiable provisions, criteria or practices.
We will not, during recruitment, selection, training, promotion, disciplinary, dismissal or any
other employment activity:
- 1. Treat any individual less favourably than others on any unlawfully discriminatory
grounds;
- 2. Impose on any individual a provision, criterion or practice that unlawfully
disadvantages an individual when compared with others;
- 3. Discriminate unlawfully against any individual because of his or her association with
someone who has a protected characteristic.
