Health Poverty Action is committed to challenging all forms of discrimination and prejudice and we will take steps with the aim of eliminating unfair disadvantage from all aspects of our work. Prejudice and harassment in any form will not be tolerated within Health Poverty Action.
The aims of our policy and practice are to ensure that
- job applicants, employees, consultants, volunteers or trustees do not suffer unfair discrimination or receive less favourable treatment because of, for example, their nationality, ethnic origin, gender, religious belief, social class or caste, age, disability, sexual orientation.
- further to this, they are not disadvantaged by conditions or requirements which cannot be shown to be justifiable and are treated on the basis of their relevant abilities and merits.
- so far as the law allows, to encourage positive action to promote equality of opportunity.
- to ensure that our procedures give individuals equal opportunity in recruitment, training, promotion and career development.
