Equal Opportunities Policy Statement
M4 Systems Ltd is an Equal Opportunities Employer. This statement underpins a
policy that the company ensures that no unlawful discrimination occurs either
directly or indirectly against any person on the grounds of colour, sex, disability,
marital status, race, culture, religion, sexual orientation, nationality or ethnic
origin. Direct discrimination occurs where one person or group is treated less
favourably than another in a comparable situation; whereas indirect
discrimination occurs where one individual or group of persons is disadvantaged
by conditions or requirements that cannot be shown to be justifiable.
In upholding this policy the company undertakes to exercise and encourage
tolerance, fairness and equality in dealing with all members of its staff and in its
interactions with all other persons outside of its employment.
The company is committed to recruiting, developing and retaining people by
valuing the varied skills and experiences they bring to M4 Systems. The
company embraces an open and honest culture which encourages respectful and
fair treatment of all individuals regardless of their differences.
The responsibility for overseeing and upholding equal opportunities in
employment and recruitment rests with the Company's directors. However, it is
expected that all employees and managers understand and implement the
company policy of non-discriminatory practice. If a member of staff suspects a
violation of this policy then it is the duty of that person to report the offence to
his/her line manager who can then take appropriate action within the scope of
the law.
