<aside> 📢 Pento is an equal-opportunities employer. We strongly believe in fairness and equality underpinning our efforts to build and nurture a diverse and inclusive team and culture.

This page sets out our Equal Opportunities Policy. You can read more about our DEI efforts and the work we’re doing to make Pento a more inclusive place to work here.

Pento is committed to encouraging and promoting diversity, equality, and inclusion among our team and within our environment, and eliminating unlawful discrimination of protected characteristics. Protected characteristics includes age, disability, gender reassignment, marriage and civil partnership, pregnancy and parental status, race (including colour, nationality, ethnicity, and national origin), religion or beliefs, sex, and sexual orientation.

Eliminating unlawful discrimination and promoting equality is applicable to any aspect of our environment — including pay and benefits, terms and conditions of employment, dealing with grievances and discipline, managing dismissal and redundancy, types of leave, our approach to flexible working, and selection for employment, promotion, training or other development opportunities.

We’re committed to:

• Removing bias and discrimination from our hiring process by assessing all applicants based on the same merits and requirements
• Providing reasonable accommodations for candidates and employees with disabilities, chronic illnesses, and religious observance
• Fostering a work environment that is free from all forms of harassment and bullying. We strive to protect our employees from inappropriate actions and behaviours that are unwanted and unwelcome, and which creates an intimidating, offensive, or hostile work environment
• Holding all members of the team accountable to upholding our equal opportunities standards. All members of the team should understand they, as well as their employer, can be held liable for acts of bullying, harassment, victimisation and unlawful discrimination, in the course of their employment, against fellow employees, customers, suppliers, and the public
• Taking complaints seriously. Such acts may be dealt with as misconduct under the organisation’s grievance and/or disciplinary procedures, and appropriate action will be taken

Details of the our grievance and disciplinary policies and procedures can be found in our code of conduct and here. Please speak to our People team or your manager (or Talent Partner, if you’re a candidate) if you wish to discuss your experience at Pento, communicate a grievance, or share any feedback.
