Equality, Diversity & Inclusion

We comply fully with the Equality Act 2010 (where applicable), the Northern Ireland Act 1998, the Fair Employment and Treatment (NI) Order 1998, the Sex Discrimination (NI) Order 1976, the Race Relations (NI) Order 1997 and the Disability Discrimination Act 1995, alongside all subsequent amendments.

We do not discriminate on the grounds of age, disability, gender reassignment, marital or civil partnership status, pregnancy or maternity, race, religion or belief, political opinion, sex, sexual orientation, or caring responsibilities.

All vacancies are advertised openly. Selection decisions are made on objective, role-related criteria. Reasonable adjustments are offered at every stage of recruitment, training and employment.

As a provider working with public sector bodies in Northern Ireland we have regard to our partners' duties under Section 75 of the Northern Ireland Act 1998. See our Section 75 Statement for detail.

Any concern about discrimination, harassment or victimisation should be raised with your Rutledge team or emailed in confidence to info@rutledgegroup.co.uk.
