National Skills Academy for Social Care Equal Opportunities and Diversity Statement
The National Skills Academy for Social Care (NSASC) is committed to eliminating discrimination and encouraging diversity amongst our workforce. Our aim is that our workforce will be truly representative of all sections of society and each employee feels respected and able to give of their best.
To that end, the purpose of this policy is to provide equality and fairness for all in our employment or participation in our schemes and not to discriminate on grounds of gender, marital status, race, ethnic origin, colour, nationality, national origin, disability, sexual orientation, religion or age. We oppose all forms of unlawful and unfair discrimination.
All participants, whether part-time, full-time or temporary, will be treated fairly and with respect.
Our commitment:
- To create an environment in which individual differences and the contributions of all our staff, associates and Scheme participants are recognised and valued
- Every participant is entitled to a working environment that promotes dignity and respect to all. No form of intimidation, bullying or harassment will be tolerated
- Training, development and progression opportunities will be available to all staff
- Equality and the encouragement of diversity in the workplace is good management practice and sound business sense
- We will ensure that all our employment and involvement policies are fair as they are developed and in their application
- Breaches of our Equal Opportunities and Diversity policy will be regarded as misconduct which could lead to disciplinary action
- This policy is fully supported by senior managers and will be agreed with staff when the organisation is formally launched
- The policy will be monitored and reviewed annually
