The Company is fully committed to ensuring there is no unfair and unlawful discrimination in relation to employees, job applicants, Clients, suppliers and members of the public. It is Company policy to engage, promote and train employees on the basis of their capabilities, qualifications and experience, without discrimination, and all employees will receive equal opportunity to progress within the Company. The Company is committed to making reasonable adjustments in the workplace for employees or applicants with disabilities to ensure they are not at a disadvantage. The Company is committed to the principle of equal pay for equal work, regardless of gender or other protected characteristics.
