It is the policy of Wood & Laycock, its Partners to consider the employment of disabled persons where and when practicable.
However the Company scope of work does involve high risk activities such as

Under the Health and Safety at Work Act 1974 and other relevant legislation, the Company has a duty to provide:-

- A place of work as free of risk as is reasonably practicable.
The Partners will consider any disabled applicant depending on the work scope vacancy.
Where and when the Partners have to decline employment of a disabled person it will have been done solely on the grounds of the Company assessing the Health and Safety at Work Act 1974 duty of care to employees and that of not placing such a disabled person at risk.
Equal Opportunities
The Partners will abide by the European Communities Act of 1972 section 2 (2a) and (2b) which came into force on the 19 July 2003.
Equal treatment of all employees irrespective of age, sexual orientation, sex, ethnic origin or disability will be ensured.
No employee or person applying for employment with the Company will be subjected to direct or indirect discrimination, harassment or bullying by any other person employed by the Company. This includes management, employees or other persons engaged to work on behalf of the Company.
The Equal Opportunities Act of 1972 will be implemented within the Company at the very first stage of workforce recruitment.
Each advertisement will clearly define the full job description, required qualifications and experience required for the vacancy. The advertisement will clearly outline that applications will be accepted from a person of any age, gender, ethnic origin or disability.
The Partners will identify a short list from all the applications received. Those persons identified on the short list will be invited to attend an interview conducted by the Partners.
Each person interviewed will be given an equal opportunity to convince the interviewer that he/she is the one most suitable for the vacancy and one who will assist the Company and its clients’ expectations regarding to the quality of product and service provision, health and safety and environmental issue performance.
The Partners will, from the applicants freely given information, make an assessment as to whether the applicant is in good health to undertake the vacancy or that the health of the applicant could be further jeopardised as a result of being offered the vacant position.
The Partners will reserve the right not to offer any applicant employment with the Company solely if they believe:-
- The health of the applicant could be further impaired.
- Non – compliance with the Health and Safety at Work Act 1974 and other relevant legislation appertaining to the Company scope of work.

The Partners consider training is a major factor regarding achieving compliance with the health and safety requirements along with issues relating to quality provision and the environmental controls required of the Company. All employees will be given the same opportunity for advancement in the Company by way of training provision.
Each employee will be accepted as an equal and an important individual within a team working together to ensure that all persons, other workers and the general public are safe during the Company scope of work carried out on a daily basis.
The Partners will investigate any complaint made by an employee who considers he or she is being treated unfairly, not given an equal opportunity, not given equal training opportunity etc. The employee making the claim will be interviewed and on conclusion of the investigation, issued with a full report of the findings. Should it be proved that an equal
opportunity has not been given to the complainant, remedial action will be fully implemented immediately by the Partner’s.
The same procedures will be adopted for any complaint received of racial abuse, bullying or intimidation by one or more employees towards another employee/s.
Age
October 1 2006, the Employment Equality (Age) Regulations made it unlawful to discriminate against workers, employees, job seekers and trainees because of their age.
The Regulations make it unlawful on the grounds of age to:-
- Discriminate directly against anyone – i.e. to treat them less favourably than others because of their age (unless objectively justified).
- Discriminate indirectly against anyone – i.e. to apply criteria provision or practice which disadvantages people of a particular age – unless it can be objectively justified.
- Subject someone to harassment.
- Victimise someone because they have made or intend to make a complaint or allegation or have given or intend to give evidence in relation to a complaint of discrimination on grounds of age.
- Discriminate against someone, in certain circumstances, after the relationship has ended.
It is therefore the Company policy not to discriminate either directly or indirectly, harass or victimise anyone on the grounds of age prior to an employment relationship beginning, throughout employment and after that employment relationship has ended.
In specific circumstances and in accordance with the Regulations, the Company its Partners, may use a lawful exception or exemption or a genuine occupational requirement.

- Ensure adequate and sufficient number of operatives, are assigned to manage and maintain the disaster plan by periodically holding management review meetings that will include the plan.
The Partners cannot guard against or be certain that such a threat would/will not happen. However, the measures implemented by the Partners, will ensure that in the event of a disaster (apart from a conventional or nuclear war that was undertaken on the soil of the British isles) the Company would/will survive and be in a position to quickly recover and continue to provide a quality product and service expected by the client.

Therefore the Partners, will not commit or knowingly allow employees or contractors working for Wood & Laycock or against a client, an insurance company, a supplier, another employee or contractor working on behalf of the Company or a member of the general public whom the Company is working for.
The Partners will, where they suspect or know that an employee is committing or has committed an act of fraud against or on behalf of Wood & Laycock or against a client, an insurance company, a supplier, another employee or contractor working on behalf of the Company, instigate an internal investigation – if necessary assisted by external sources, depending on the suspected or known type and nature of the fraud.

If a employee or employees suspect an irregularity has occurred or is likely to occur, they should report this to a Partner.
All concerns reported will be treated in confidence and fully investigated. If anonymity is requested, every effort will be made to ensure such confidentially is achieved.
The Partners to whom the concerns are expressed will take prompt action and the reporting employee or employees will be quickly notified of any actions taken. Where action is not considered appropriate, the employee or employees will be advised how to pursue the matter formally.
Employees should be aware that, if a suspicion is reported and results in a disciplinary action or prosecution hearing, their involvement as a witness in such processes may be necessary, unless other substantial reliable evidence is made available.
Employees are also advised that there is a need to ensure that the investigative process is not misused, Therefore any abuse, such as raising unfounded or malicious allegations, may be dealt with as a disciplinary matter in itself. This should not deter employees from raising genuine concerns (even if subsequently unfounded but made with good intent) as in so doing they will be supported in every possible way.
Residential House Owners for Whom Work is Being Carried Out
The Partners will encourage clients (house owners) for whom the Company is carrying out works, to report any concern regarding an employee or employees, sub contractors working on behalf of the Company, who they suspect are committing an act of fraud against them.
