Diversity and Inclusion Policy
Kim Witten Coaching Limited is committed to diversity and inclusion as a guiding business principle.
I aim to operate an inclusive business which respects the needs of the individual, ensures people are treated equally, encourages diversity and makes certain that nobody is disadvantaged.
My prime focus is that equality and diversity is maintained in all aspects of my business and is demonstrated by the manner in which I treat clients and suppliers.
My diversity and inclusion commitment
I am committed to a policy of treating every individual equally.
No person will receive less favourable treatment on the basis of any ‘protected characteristic’, namely;
Race (including ethnic origin, colour, nationality and national origin)
Religion or belief
Disability
Age
Gender or gender reassignment
Sex or sexual orientation
Pregnancy or maternity
Marriage or civil partnership
No form of intimidation, bullying or harassment will be tolerated. I stand against all forms of:
Direct discrimination
Indirect discrimination
Victimisation
Harassment
I encourage any concerns to be communicated to me (Kim Witten) by email. All concerns shall be treated in confidence and investigated swiftly.
All individuals or companies who represent me or operate on my behalf are expected to comply with this Diversity and Inclusion policy. This applies to expressions of views on social media and any circumstances which may affect my reputation — my commitment to diversity and inclusion is very important to both me and the company.
I will select suppliers and partners based on suitability, experience, and ability. I will not discriminate against any presence or absence of a protected characteristic.
I am committed to operating in an environment that promotes dignity, equality and respect for all, and to regular monitoring to ensure I am always conducting my business in accordance with this policy.
I aim to value and encourage diversity and will partner with, employ, or use the services of individuals that are representative of the wider community.
Purpose
I shall actively promote a culture that values differences and which recognises people from different backgrounds will, through their experiences, share valuable insights which shall enhance the way I work.
Diversity means celebrating and respecting our differences and valuing everyone.
I am thrilled to share in, value and benefit from the contributions of every individual.
My purpose is to break down barriers, eliminate discrimination and ensure equal opportunities and access throughout my business operation and our services.
I believe we all have a part to play to prevent discrimination and to promote diversity and equality in society.
