Equality, Harassment and Bullying Policy
We choose workers on merit alone, refuse discriminatory requests, and act on harassment — including by a client's staff.
Our promise
We treat everyone fairly and choose workers only on skills, experience and availability — never on age, disability, sex, race, religion, sexual orientation, gender reassignment, pregnancy or marriage.
- We refuse any client request to choose or exclude people for those reasons.
- We make reasonable adjustments for disabled workers. You don't need a diagnosis to ask.
- We take all reasonable steps to stop harassment — including by a client's staff, customers or visitors.
What harassment means
Unwanted behaviour linked to who you are, or of a sexual nature, that makes you feel intimidated, humiliated or degraded. It can be words, jokes, messages, touching or gestures. It doesn't matter whether it was "meant as a joke".
If it happens to you
Report it on site to the client's supervisor, or to us instead — whichever you prefer:
- Phone 01869 323444 (out of hours 07444 368 155)
- Online: Raise a concern, or "Report a concern" on your shift link
- Email jason@equationrecruitment.com
What we do
- Acknowledge within 2 working days.
- Raise it with the client at manager level ourselves, protecting you. We keep your name out if you ask.
- Keep you on pay — we never move you or stop your shifts because you reported, unless you ask to move.
- Stop supplying a site if it isn't put right.
You will not lose work for reporting. Free advice: Acas 0300 123 1100. Pay, holiday or agency rules: Fair Work Agency 0800 432 0804.
