Equality

Research shows that diversity can help stimulate creative interaction, motivate your employees and improve business performance.

Everyone is protected in law from direct and indirect discrimination on the grounds of:

• sex
• race
• ethnic origin
• nationality
• disability
• sexual orientation
• religion or belief
• marital status
• pregnancy
• age, or
• because they are a member or non-member of a trade union
