Because our differences makes us interesting...

Purpose
The purpose of the Diversity Policy is to encourage an atmosphere in which all staff embrace the benefits of working in a diverse community and to provide a framework for the fair and equitable treatment of all employees, job applicants, customers, suppliers and visitors irrespective of their individual differences or any personal characteristics.
It forms the basis of respect for people across the business and supports the BLU 3 values of “Caring” and “Teamwork”.
Definitions
See Appendix 1.
Legal Background
The relevant UK legislation affecting diversity and equal opportunities is listed in Appendix 2.

Scope
This policy relates to all aspects of employment, including individual standards of behaviour, the advertisement of jobs, recruitment and selection, training and development, appraisal, pay, promotion and leaving the Company. The principles apply equally to all dealings with customers, suppliers and visitors.
This policy applies to anyone on a BLU 3 site and the sanctions will apply directly to all BLU 3 employees.

Policy Statement
BLU 3 is committed to the principle of valuing diversity. We recognise the benefits that can be secured through employing a diverse workforce and harnessing the individual talents of staff from different backgrounds and with different skills. These include:
Tangible business benefits such as improved staff morale, absence levels, staff retention, customer satisfaction and profits.
An improved Company image leading to a wider customer base and a wider pool of people to recruit from.
The avoidance of costly legal proceedings caused by breaches of equality legislation.
We are committed to providing fair and equal treatment for all staff (including self employed and staff contract workers), customers, suppliers and visitors and all staff are expected to treat everyone with whom they come into contact with dignity and respect. Staff should be aware of the importance the Company attaches to this policy and that breaches will be classed as disciplinary offences and dealt with accordingly.
