Equal Opportunities Policy

Eastwood Volunteer Bureau recognises that certain groups and individuals within society experience discrimination both directly and indirectly. We are committed to the principles of equal opportunities in employment and service delivery, as it affects individuals and groups whether they are members, service users, employees or volunteers.

Eastwood Volunteer Bureau is committed to opposing direct and indirect discrimination on the grounds of race, colour, gender, sexuality/sexual orientation, disability, age, ethnic or national origin, religion, marital status and political belief. We are taking active steps to encourage practices which counter discrimination and recognise that this requires the participation and commitment of all members, service users, employees and volunteers of Eastwood Volunteer Bureau.

Eastwood Volunteer Bureau accepts the statutory requirements laid down in the Sex Discrimination Act (1975), the Race Relations Act (1976), the Disability Discrimination Act (1995) and the Employment Equality (Age) Regulations (2006).
