Diversity, Equity & Inclusion Policy

Mission Statement:

At AMS Media Group, we’re ensuring that Everybody’s Always Welcome.
Our Diversity, Equity & Inclusion Policy is dedicated to maintaining and driving this supportive and inclusive culture throughout our workforce – from top to bottom.

Organisational Values:

This Policy reinforces our commitment to providing equality and fairness to all in our employment and not providing less favourable facilities or treatment on the grounds of age, disability, gender reassignment, marriage and civil partnership, pregnancy and parenting, race, ethnic origin, colour, nationality, national origin, religion or belief, or sex and sexual orientation.

We aim to ensure that all employees and job applicants are given equal opportunity and that our organisation represents all sections of society.
We are opposed to all forms of unlawful and unfair discrimination, with every AMS Media Group employee being respected and valued and able to give their best.

All employees, whether part-time, full-time, or temporary, will always be treated fairly and with respect.

Recruitment & Advancement:

When AMS Media Group selects candidates for employment, promotion, training, or any other benefit, it will be based on their aptitude and ability.
This policy commits us to investing time and financial resources to reach out to under-represented groups proactively to promote the availability of job roles within AMS Media Group and encourage applications.

Our employees will be given help and encouragement to develop their full potential and utilise their unique talents whenever relevant. AMS Media Group will provide Workplace Support Programmes specific to employees from under-represented communities.

The organisational benefits for AMS Media Group maintaining this policy are recognised in terms of fully utilising employee skills and resources and maximising the efficiency of our entire workforce.
