Focus Care Services is committed to promoting equality and fairness

• Focus Care Services monitors and evaluates the service we provide to ensure that we do not discriminate or exclude any individual unfairly.
• We encourage and welcome updating of knowledge, via training and development to ensure that our staff have an understanding of equality issues.

 

We celebrate and promote diversity at every level

As an Equal opportunities employer Focus Care Services seek to recruit and retain a workforce that reflects the community it serves. We are therefore committed to providing equality of access to employment and development opportunities for people from all sections of the community. It is essential for us at Focus Care Services to ensure that all members of the community have a fair and equal access to employment and development opportunities. To ensure that we meet the individual needs of our service users we provide our staff with information, training and assistance in promoting cultural awareness. We encourage our staff to promote equality with service users from different cultures/ethnicities by ensuring that our support workers carry out their duties and responsibilities in the following ways:

• Showing respect for the service users, work colleagues and their families regardless of their backgrounds and experiences
• Challenge any form of oppressive/discriminatory behaviour that they may witness or suffer

Focus Care Services recognise the importance of working closely with our partners and stakeholders to develop a shared understanding of commitment to equality and diversity.
