What people say about this qualification:

“After gaining a NEBOSH International General Certificate I was able to suggest and implement new ideas that reduced Lost Time Injuries by 75%. My achievements helped me to secure my current role as a manager. I also wrote a research paper around my experiences and was privileged to be named ‘National Volunteer OSH Research Ambassador’ as part of Kenyan President Uhuru Kenyatta’s ‘Big Four Agenda’.”

Equality and Diversity Policy

.

EQUALITY

Equality of opportunity is about a fair and unprejudiced view of people and about creating conditions in the workplace and in society that encourage and value diversity and promote dignity. It seeks to correct past imbalances and to ensure that dealings with clients and suppliers are conducted constructively, in a way that favours inclusion and does not give rise to unjustified discrimination. 

.

DIVERSITY

Diversity is about creating an inclusive environment and practices that benefit the institution and everyone who works in and with it. It takes into account the fact that people differ from one another in many ways. Understanding, valuing and effectively managing these differences can lead to greater participation, which drives success at individual, team and institutional level.

When we talk about equal opportunities and diversity, we think of seven main areas:

Age

Disability

Race/ethnicity

Gender (including transgender people)

Religion/belief and culture

Sexual orientation

Work-life balance.

We have developed policies that promote equality and diversity and use a range of tools to check and assess progress in mainstreaming these policies.

.

Some initiatives (examples)

Our organisation is committed to implementing the following measures to promote the inclusion of people with disabilities or impairments:

– Priority service;

– Accessible facilities;

– Learning materials provided in formats adapted to trainees’ visual abilities (for example, font size) or IT skills (option of digital or paper format).
