Diversity.
Diversity Policy.
Love Vivacity Limited recognises that diversity and inclusion help to support creativity and innovation: they are an essential ingredient in a successful professional services firm. We are committed to encouraging diversity and inclusion and to ensuring there is no discrimination in our company. We want our workforce and stakeholders to be truly representative of all sections of society. We want our company to be one in which every client, employee, freelancer or contractor feels respected and able to give their best.
To that end this policy provides a framework of equality and fairness for all in our employment. It expresses our commitment not to discriminate on the grounds of age, disability, gender, gender reassignment, marital status (including civil partnerships), race, ethnic origin, colour, nationality, national origin, religion or belief and sexual orientation. We oppose all forms of unlawful and unfair discrimination.
Love Vivacity thanks the Creative Diversity Network in inspiring this Diversity policy.
This policy applies to employed and freelance staff and to people working on and off screen.
All freelancers and employees, whether part-time, full-time or temporary, will be treated fairly and with respect. Selection for employment, whether as a member of staff or on a freelance basis will be on the basis of aptitude and ability. Access to opportunities for promotion, training or any other benefit will also be on the basis of aptitude and ability. All employees will be encouraged to develop their full potential and the talents and resources of the workforce will be fully utilised to maximise the creativity and success of the company.
We will:
Review all our formal and informal employment/hiring practices and procedures to ensure they are fair and help us to identify the best talent.
Identify and take opportunities to increase the diversity of engagement decisions.
Ensure reasonable adjustments are made to enable disabled people to work in or with our company.
Create an environment in which individual differences and the contributions of all our staff and freelancers are recognised and valued.
Ensure every employee and freelancer is able to work in an environment that promotes dignity and respect for all. We will not tolerate any form of intimidation, bullying or harassment.
Ensure training, development and progression opportunities are available to all staff.
We will monitor the success of this policy regularly and our review our progress regularly.
This policy is fully supported by the shareholders of the company. Breaches of the policy may be regarded as misconduct and could lead to disciplinary proceedings.
This Diversity policy is effective from 1 January 2024.
