Equality & Diversity
Derbyshire Fire & Rescue Service is committed to mainstreaming equality and diversity in everything that we do, celebrating the diversity of its employees and developing community based services specific to the needs of the people of Derby/Derbyshire. We will strive to ensure the promotion of equality of opportunity, prevent unlawful discrimination and promote good relations between people. We are determined to ensure that no job applicant, employee, or member of the community receives less favorable treatment on the grounds of their age, disability, gender, race, religion/belief or sexual orientation.
Derbyshire Fire & Rescue Service will ensure that everyone is equally valued, respected, and treated with dignity and fairness. Our core values of: Service to the Community, People, Diversity and Improvement emphasise the practices, attitudes and behavior that we seek to instill throughout the Service and the organisations that we work in partnership with. Bullying, harassment, unfair discrimination and unacceptable behaviors will not be tolerated.
We support and promote an inclusive positive working environment which will embed diversity and equality in all areas or our service delivery.
We welcome views from the public on how we could best develop our policies and procedures from an equality point of view to improve our service to the Community. Please submit your views or suggestions about this by e-mail edic@derbys-fire.gov.uk
