We aim to create a working environment that is free from discrimination and harassment in any form, in which all staff, are treated with dignity and respect.
There are a number of ways in which Maxica Consulting Limited aims to ensure equal opportunities in the workplace, including:
* Recruitment and selection:
Recruitment and selection procedures will be free from bias or discrimination. Recruitment procedures will be conducted objectively and will be based upon specific and reasonable job-related criteria. Decisions regarding an individual’s suitability for a particular role will be based on aptitude and ability. We will consider making appropriate reasonable adjustments to the recruitment process to ensure that disabled applicants are not substantially disadvantaged.
* Career development and training:
All staff will be given an appropriate induction to enable them to fulfil the responsibilities of their role. All employees will be encouraged to develop their full potential and we will not unreasonably deny an employee access to training or other career development opportunities. These will be identified as part of an ongoing performance management process and will be determined objectively, taking into account the needs of the business and available resources. Selection for promotion will be based on objective criteria and decisions will be made on the basis of merit.
