Anti Discrimination Policy

Last updated: 14.06.2023 

At pal we celebrate the diversity of our staff, users, and our stakeholders and welcome learning from others. We aim to ensure that all our employees are treated on the basis of their merits and abilities and strive to offer an environment where everyone is treated with dignity and respect.

We are an Equal Opportunities employer and do not tolerate any form of discrimination based on race, ethnicity, religion, disability, HIV status, gender, sexual orientation, age, acccent, social background, marital/civil partnership status, pregnancy/parenthood status, or trade union activity.

We have a duty of care to protect staff and support will be offered as a priority should any employee experience problems with bullying or harassment e.g. offensive behaviour/malicious behaviour/misuse of power. We will investigate all complaints before taking prompt and appropriate action. Anyone found to be acting in an unacceptable manner towards others may find their employment at risk.
