Equality and Diversity Policy
Definitions:
Diversity is an understanding that each individual is unique. This means recognising that differences in religion, language, ethnicity, gender, culture, sexuality, age and social background should be valued and respected.
It is not just a tolerance of these differences; it is an acceptance and respect of individuality.
A failure to recognise diversity can lead to discrimination.
Discrimination means to treat someone differently based on a perceived difference in worth or value.
Equality and Diversity Policy.
Momentum Recruitment Ltd respects and values the differences that each individual brings to the work place. We believe that excellence will be achieved through recognising the value of every individual.
