It seeks to prov... ide employment, education and services in an environment in which diversity is welcomed, respected and valued. The College's Single Equality Scheme (SES) is intended to respond to the spirit as well as the letter of the Equality Act 2010. The SES also aims to promote all other forms of equality and human rights that might be relevant to the company's work. The company seeks to ensure the elimination of discrimination, harassment and victimisation in relation to the protected characteristics identified in the Act. The company will work to advance equality of opportunity and foster good relations throughout the company's organisation. Leadership and commitment at all levels of the organisation are central to the success of the scheme. In everything the company do, the company will consider how the company can ensure that the company do not discriminate against or disadvantage individuals or groups, and the company will seek opportunities to promote equality and diversity wherever the company can. The company recognise that the scheme is a work in progress, to be consulted on and refined as necessary. The practical steps to be taken are presented as an action plan.Read More
