We will not tolerate acts that breach this policy and we shall take seriously all instances of such behaviour, or alleged behaviour and ensure that they are fully investigated and may be subject to our disciplinary procedures.
If an existing employee becomes disabled, we shall endeavour to retain them within the workforce, wherever reasonable and practicable, commensurate with their skills and experience.
Whenever we invest capital in new or refurbished premises, we shall take due consideration of the needs of staff and customers with disabilities, within the constraints of the premises.
We shall provide our goods and services to our customers and clients without any form of unlawful discrimination.
