Workplace Harassment

We are committed to providing a workplace free from harassment of any kind.

Employees are encouraged to report any instances of harassment immediately to their line manager, HR department, or using the designated reporting mechanisms provided by the company.

Conflict Resolution

We recognise that conflicts may arise in the workplace. It is important that conflicts are addressed and resolved in a professional and respectful manner. Employees are encouraged to engage in open communication, active listening, and problem-solving to resolve conflicts. In cases where resolution is challenging, employees are encouraged to seek guidance from their line manager or the HR department.

Confidentiality

Employees may have access to sensitive or confidential information as part of their job responsibilities. It is essential to maintain the confidentiality of such information, both during and after employment. Unauthorised disclosure of confidential information, including sharing with external parties or colleagues who do not have a legitimate need to know, is strictly prohibited.

Drug and Alcohol Policy

We maintain a drug and alcohol-free workplace. The use, possession, distribution, or sale of illegal drugs or alcohol on company premises, during work hours, or at company-sponsored events is strictly prohibited. Employees are expected to report to work free from the influence of drugs or alcohol that could impair their ability to perform their job duties safely and effectively.

 

Technology and Internet Usage

The company’s technology resources, including computers, mobile phones, networks, and internet access, are provided for business purposes. Employees are expected to use these resources responsibly, following all applicable laws, policies, and guidelines. This includes refraining from unauthorised access, sharing or dissemination of inappropriate or offensive material, or engaging in activities that may disrupt the company’s network or systems.

All employees have a duty of care for safeguarding our stakeholders data and to comply with handling requirements.

Compliance with Laws and Regulations

All employees are expected to comply with all applicable laws, regulations, and company policies in the course of their employment whether this relates to safety, environmental or any other regulatory framework. Violations may result in disciplinary action, up to and including termination of employment, and may also lead to legal consequences.

 

In addition we will not supply products containing counterfeit materials and we will take the appropriate actions to ensure these do not enter our supply chain.
