Where inappropriate behaviour is evident, we will challenge this in a supportive manner and encourage the client to consider the impact of their behaviour, attitude and/or language and to be more inclusive and appropriate. Should the situation continue, All About Newport Ltd will seek guidance on appropriate next steps from an appropriate source. The aim is to instil the principles of good practice and develop the clients, Affiliates/Partners’ understanding of their ethical and statutory obligation to comply with current Equality legislation, whilst encouraging all clients and Affiliates/Partners’ to promote good working relationships regardless of whether or not they share a protected characteristic.
