We’re an equal opportunity employer
As a strong supporter of equal opportunity in education, employment and office welfare, Ethnic strives to achieve gender equity and equal opportunity in all aspects.
Our equal opportunity policies, practices and programs are:
- compatible with our overall goals and responsibilities;
- consistent with the principles of justice, equity and the pursuit of excellence;
- conform with the spirit and intent of equal opportunity and anti-discrimination legislation; and
- designed to support the principle that staff are selected or promoted according to merit
Our structures and practices are free from direct or indirect discrimination based on age, gender, marital status, carer status, pregnancy and breastfeeding, parenthood, physical features, sexuality, sexual orientation, gender identity, social and economic circumstances, race, disability, religious and political beliefs, and activities, industrial activity and personal association with a person who could be discriminated against. Notwithstanding the above there are special circumstances (e.g. certain disadvantaged groups) where Ethnic will adopt policies that may discriminate between classes or groups of individuals.
We understand our responsibility to create an educational and employment environment free of discrimination, take positive steps to overcome inequality of opportunity, and develop programs (where appropriate) that redress the effects of past discriminatory practices within the community.
Ethnic is in compliance with the Workplace Gender Equality Act 2012 (Cth).
