Action Together EDI Strategy 2024-2029 by Action Together
At Action Together, we believe that in order to support strong communities and enable positive social change, we need to be an inclusive and welcoming place to work, and an effective service provider for all.
We want to be purposeful in creating this culture, so we have developed an Equity, Diversity, and Inclusion Strategy to guide us in our journey.
This document, alongside our Equity, Diversity, and Inclusion Policy, outlines the actions we will be taking over the next five years to learn and improve as both an employer and a service provider.
Action Together's Zero-Tolerance Policy on Harassment
At Action Together, we are committed to fostering a safe, respectful, and inclusive environment for our staff. We have a zero-tolerance approach to all forms of harassment, including but not limited to sexual harassment, physical harassment, racism (including micro-aggressions), verbal abuse, and any behaviour that undermines the dignity and well-being of our team.
Harassment of any kind is unacceptable and will not be tolerated. This applies to interactions in person, online, over the phone, or through any other means of communication.
If a staff member experiences harassment, it will be taken seriously and addressed promptly. Action Together reserves the right to:
- Investigate any reported incidents of harassment
- Take appropriate action, which may include withdrawal of services, termination of partnerships, and/or other reasonable measures to safeguard our team
We also encourage anyone who experiences or witnesses harassment involving our staff to report it immediately, by contacting humanresources@actiontogether.org.uk. All reports will be handled with sensitivity, and confidentiality will be maintained wherever possible.
By working with Action Together, you are agreeing to uphold these standards and treat our staff with respect at all times. Together, we can ensure a positive and supportive environment for everyone.
Thank you for your understanding and cooperation.
