Diversity supports business development

Managing teams, within which there are more differences between the co-workers than common elements, requires strong focus on relationship management. The role of the people responsible for human resources is mainly to ensure working conditions which support development and give the employees the feeling of safety, understood not only in physical context but also as mental comfort.

System solutions are needed and in that regard the Diversity Policy may be enumerated. One of the assumptions of the Policy is to transform diversity into business development, because the individual traits of the employees contribute to creative solutions.
The basic element is to prevent any forms of employees or contractors discrimination because of their sex, age, disability, health, race, nationality, ethnic origin, religion, denomination, atheism, political views, trade union affiliation, psycho-sexual orientation, gender identity, family status, lifestyle, the form, scope and basis of employment, other types of cooperation or other discriminatory grounds.

The companies fulfil their tasks related to propagating tolerance, preventing discrimination, as well as adjustment of workplaces and conditions of work to the particular needs of the employees. This is performed by way of training provision, introducing flexible forms of work, but also through payroll review, granting awards or benefits, and assessment of the criteria forming basis for granting the same.

The Diversity Policy is an extension of the guidelines set forth in the Code of Ethics of the Grupa Kęty S.A. Capital Group.

In 2018 no discrimination cases were reported, whereas the cases of dignity violation have been described in the ‘Professionalism and ethics‘ Chapter.
