Diversity and Equal Opportunities Model Policy Policy Statement This organisation wholeheartedly supports the principle of equal opportunities in employment and opposes all forms of unlawful or unfair discrimination on any grounds, and in particular, those of disability, race, religion or belief, nationality, ethnic or national origin, age, sex, marital status or sexual orientation. We aim to encourage, value and manage diversity and we recognise that talent and potential are distributed across the population. Not only are there moral and social reasons for promoting equality of opportunity, it is in the best interest of this organisation to recruit and develop the best people for our jobs from as wide and diverse a pool of talent as possible. That diversity adds value. We aim to remove any barriers, bias or discrimination that prevent individuals or groups from realising their potential and contributing fully to our organisations performance and to develop an organisational culture that positively values diversity. We are committed wherever practicable, to achieving and maintaining a workforce that broadly reflects the local community in which we operate. Every possible step will be taken to ensure that individuals are treated fairly in all aspects of their employment at [Organisation name]. Employees have a duty to co-operate with [Organisation name] to ensure that this policy is effective in ensuring equal opportunities and in preventing discrimination. Employees should draw the attention of their line manager to suspected discriminatory acts or practices or cases of bullying or harassment. Implementation plan Recruitment and selection Procedures will be designed to recruit the best person for the job by Producing a clear job description and person specification Drawing applicants from as wide a pool as possible Ensuring selection procedures focus on the person specification Ensuring interviewers are trained Monitoring Staff development and retention Equality will be embedded in employment practices. Issues of harassment, discrimination and bullying will be taken seriously and will be dealt with under the organisations bullying and harassment, grievance, and discipline procedures. Acts of retaliation against those who lodge complaints or provide information about acts of discrimination or harassment will be treated as potential gross misconduct. There will be equality of pay and other terms and conditions of employment and equality in the application of the organisations employment policies eg Absence. Decisions on promotion and career management will be based solely on objective and job related criteria. Consideration of work-life balance issues such as flexible working will be given at all levels of the organisation. Flexible working around time off for religious observances will be considered. Development opportunities will be planned around the individual and their own work objectives. Discriminatory grievance This organisation regards discrimination very seriously and employees who feel they have been discriminated against should raise the matter with their line manager. Initially the employee and manager should aim to resolve the matter informally. It may be that discriminatory action is unwitting and easily resolved once the problem is made clear. If they are dissatisfied with the outcome, the complaint is very serious, or their line manager is the cause of the complaint, the employee should raise the matter, in writing, as a formal grievance under the organisations Grievance Procedure. Employees may also find the organisations Bullying and Harassment Policy relevant. Disciplinary Action Employees who are found to be acting in a discriminatory way will be dealt with under the organisations Disciplinary Procedures.
