Its aim is to raise awareness, promote a positive working environment and provide an effective means (within the company) of dealing with inappropriate behaviour including, bullying, harassment and sexual harassment.

The Purpose Of The Policy
The purpose of the charter and policy is two fold; the first is to promote Respect and Dignity in the workplace and to create awareness of the potential problems of inappropriate behaviour including bullying, harassment and sexual harassment. The second is to treat all claims seriously and strive to resolve issues quickly, effectively and informally, where possible, whilst also maintaining good relations between all parties. We are confident that our policy can assist in creating a supportive environment where employees have the right to carry out their work in a positive environment.
