Equality, Diversity and Inclusion Statement

CXV Global is committed to encouraging equality, diversity and inclusion among our workforce, and eliminating unlawful discrimination.

The aim is for our workforce to be truly representative of all sections of society and our customers, and for each employee to feel respected and able to give their best.

We commit to:

  • providing equality, fairness and respect for all in our employment, whether temporary, part-time or full-time
  • not unlawfully discriminating due to characteristics of gender, marital status, family status, age disability, sexual orientation, race, religion, and membership of the Traveller community.
  • opposing and avoiding all forms of unlawful discrimination. This includes in pay and benefits, terms and conditions of employment, dealing with grievances and discipline, dismissal, redundancy, leave for parents, requests for flexible working, and selection for employment, promotion, training or other developmental opportunities

We commit to:

  • Encouraging equality, diversity and inclusion in the workplace
  • Creating a working environment free of bullying, harassment, victimisation and unlawful discrimination, promoting dignity and respect for all, and where individual differences and the contributions of all staff are recognised and valued.
  • Taking seriously complaints of bullying, harassment, victimisation and unlawful discrimination by fellow employees, customers, suppliers, visitors, the public and any others in the course of the organisation’s work activities. Such acts will be dealt with as misconduct under the organisation’s grievance and/or disciplinary procedures, and appropriate action will be taken. Particularly serious complaints could amount to gross misconduct and lead to dismissal without notice.
  • Making opportunities for training, development and progress available to all staff, who will be helped and encouraged to develop their full potential, so their talents and resources can be fully utilised to maximise the efficiency of the organisation
  • Decisions concerning staff being based on merit and established objective decision making criteria
  • Reviewing employment practices and procedures when necessary to ensure fairness, and also update them and the policy to take account of changes in the law
  • Monitoring the make-up of the workforce regarding information such as age, sex, nationality, and disability in encouraging equality, diversity and inclusion, and in meeting the aims and commitments set out in the equality, diversity and inclusion policy. Monitoring will also include assessing how the equality, diversity and inclusion policy, and any supporting action plan, are working in practice, reviewing them annually, and considering and taking action to address any issues.

 

The equality, diversity and inclusion policy is fully supported by senior management.
