Equal opportunity statement

The council's employment policy ensures full and equal opportunity to all employees

The council expects all its employees to comply with both the letter and the spirit of its Equal Opportunities Policy not to discriminate, either in employment practices or in the provision of facilities and services to the public, because of a person's Sex, Marital Status, Disability, Sexual Orientation, Race, Colour, Creed, Ethnic or National Origins.

Terms and conditions of employment afforded, decisions on recruitment, training and promotion are made solely on the requirements of the job or such other objective criteria as are appropriate.

All members of the local community, users of services and other employees have a right to be treated with fairness and equity.
