At Super Protection, we are fully committed to upholding the principle of equal opportunities in every aspect of employment, from recruitment and training to promotion and workplace conduct. We strictly oppose and do not tolerate any form of unfair treatment, discrimination, harassment, or victimisation of employees or job applicants based on race, religion, political beliefs, creed, colour, ethnic or national origin, marital or parental status, gender, sexual orientation, disability, age, or any other characteristic protected by law. We believe in fostering a diverse, inclusive, and respectful working environment where all individuals are valued for their contributions, encouraged to reach their full potential, and treated with dignity and fairness at all times. Our commitment to equality is deeply embedded in our policies, practices, and everyday operations.

Rehabilitation of Offenders

We do not discriminate against anyone with a spent conviction under the Rehabilitation of Offenders Act 1974.

Equal Pay

Super Protection is committed to providing equal pay for men and women who perform the same or equivalent work, ensuring fairness and compliance with UK law.

Harassment at Work

Harassment is any unwanted behaviour that affects an individual’s dignity or creates an intimidating, hostile, degrading, humiliating, or offensive environment. Harassment based on gender, sexual orientation, marital status, race, colour, nationality, age, disability, or any other protected characteristic is strictly prohibited.

Harassment may include physical or verbal abuse, practical jokes, or any conduct that persists despite being unwelcome. Any such behaviour will be treated seriously and may lead to disciplinary action.

Sexual Harassment

Sexual harassment is unwelcome conduct of a sexual nature which may include unwanted physical contact, sexual advances, propositions, pressure for sexual activity, or derogatory remarks related to gender. Such behaviour denies equal employment opportunity and is treated as a serious offence.

Racial Discrimination and Harassment

Racial harassment includes offensive jokes, names, verbal or physical abuse, or any detrimental treatment based on race or ethnicity. This policy covers all forms of communication, including electronic messages. Formal complaints will be investigated thoroughly, with potential suspension of the accused pending investigation. Protection from victimisation is guaranteed for complainants and witnesses.

Age Discrimination

Discrimination or harassment based on age is prohibited in recruitment, promotion, training, and other employment-related decisions. Exceptions may apply only in cases of genuine occupational requirements.
