Equal Opportunities and Diversity Policy

This plan is a natural extension of business development at buddi and is designed to allow every individual to achieve his/her full potential. It should also create a working environment where colleagues feel respect and trust for each other. The objectives of buddi’s equal opportunities plan are that men and women should receive equal salaries for carrying out the same work, that it should be possible to combine work and family life, that an employee’s skills and experience should be valued, and that sexual harassment is not tolerated.

buddi aims to be an equal opportunities employer so that men and women are offered the same options regarding work, recruitment, conditions of employment and chances of personal development at work.

buddi will actively work against differences in salary or conditions of employment between men and women where both genders carry out the same work. The company will also promote equal career and salary development for both genders.

Salaries within buddi are to be based on competence, the levels of responsibility and/or difficulty a position involves performance and market forces. Gender is not a factor in setting salaries. Should it transpire that discrimination in salary matters due to gender has been an issue within the company, corrective measures are to be taken immediately.

buddi is to provide employees with the chance to combine work and home life and the company will look favorably on maternity/paternity leave, and will encourage both genders to take out their entitlement.

Working conditions are to be suitable for both men and women; both in terms of the physical and psychological working environment.

buddi strives towards equal representation of both genders in its workforce. The company welcomes applications from both men and women for jobs and wherever possible tries to encourage applications from the gender which is under-represented.

All employees at buddi are fully aware of the company’s position and its objectives concerning equal opportunities.

buddi does not tolerate any form of offensive behavior, be it in the form of sexual harassment or any other form of discrimination.

Equal opportunities should be a natural part of our business development and will be promoted in everyday matters and work-related issues. An integral phase in this process is to draw up an equal opportunities plan every year. This plan should contain short and long-term measures and should follow up measures/activities which have been put into practice.
