Social Value

Equal opportunity

Equal opportunity

EUROPEAN DYNAMICS is an equal opportunity employer and applies an Equal Opportunities Policy (EOP) for this purpose. This policy covers all aspects of employment, from advertising of vacancies, selection, recruitment and training to working conditions and reasons for termination of employment.
We take measures to increase the representation of disabled people in our workforce. We support disabled people in developing new skills relevant to our activities, including through training schemes that result in recognised qualifications.
We regularly monitor the working environment and take appropriate action if necessary to ensure that our EOP operates effectively. Our actions eliminate immediately unlawful direct and indirect discrimination and promote equality of opportunity.
We influence staff, suppliers, customers and communities to support disabled people. We also take measures to identify and tackle inequality in employment, skills and pay in our workforce. We support career development to help people, including those from disadvantaged or minority groups, to move into higher paid work by developing new skills relevant to our activities.
Our long-term aim is to proportionally represent all socially disadvantaged groups in the composition of our workforce. We set targets with a fixed timetable for hiring people belonging to groups that are underrepresented in the workforce. Where necessary, specific steps in conformance with relevant legislation are taken to help disadvantaged and/or underrepresented groups to compete for jobs on a genuine equal opportunity basis. Our EOP and the measures for its implementation are based on advice from relevant bodies and in consultation with representatives of our employees.
