Equal opportunities and diversity

Home Retail Group is committed to promoting equal opportunities for all our employees, and to provide a working environment that is free from all forms of discrimination and harassment. As an example, people with disabilities have equal opportunities when applying for vacancies with due regard to their aptitudes and abilities. We have procedures to ensure that disabled employees are treated fairly and that their training and career development needs are carefully managed.

In October 2006, we introduced a new retirement procedure and updated our retirement policy to comply with the age discrimination regulations. We already allowed many employees to work beyond their planned retirement date and the introduction of the procedure served to formalise this process to ensure consistency and compliance with the new regulations.
