  Equal Opportunity and Affirmative Action Policy

  Recognizing the need to make optimal use of the available human resources, it is Burson policy to provide an environment which maximizes the talent, potential and contribution of all employees and ensures equal opportunity for all employees.

Affirmative Action is the process by which equal employment opportunity for women is promoted, and Burson is committed to complying with the requirements of the Affirmative Action (Equal Opportunity for women) Act 1986. Burson’s Equal Opportunity and Affirmative Action policy are based on the following principles:

• To comply with anti-discrimination law.

• To hire the best qualified person for the available job where suitability will be assessed according to skills, qualifications, abilities, prior work performance and aptitudes.

• To appraise and promote employees only on an assessment of performance and potential.

• To conduct operations without regard to discrimination and to be socially responsible for organizational activities.

• To provide an environment which takes into account personal aspirations and encourages them to be achieved within the organization’s framework.

Managers and Supervisors have the primary responsibility to ensure that their area of accountability complies with the policy and principles. As well, every employee has a responsibility to treat all other employees with fairness and equality so that the total working environment is free from discriminatory activities and practices.
