At NHS Property Services, we believe everyone should feel included, valued, respected and empowered to do their best work. We want all colleagues to feel comfortable being themselves, know they belong, and contribute their best towards achieving the outcomes that matter most to our customers, communities and patients.
We are committed to creating a fair, equitable, respectful, and inclusive workplace, in line with the Equality Act 2010. We don't tolerate discrimination, harassment, sexual harassment, victimisation, bullying or any other inappropriate behaviour. This includes conduct related to age, disability, gender reassignment, marriage and civil partnership, pregnancy and maternity, race, religion or belief, sex, or sexual orientation. We recognise that colleagues have different experiences, circumstances and needs, and we work to identify and remove barriers so everyone has access to the opportunities, support and resources they need to succeed.
We value the different perspectives, experiences, and backgrounds that our colleagues bring. By embracing difference, we strengthen how we work together, better support our customers and communities, and help deliver improved outcomes across the NHS estate.
We take practical steps to embed equity, diversity, and inclusion in the way we recruit, develop, and support our people. This includes inclusive recruitment practices, learning and development opportunities, colleague networks, awareness initiatives, and workplace adjustments where needed. We recognise that colleagues may need different types of support to access opportunities equitably, and we are committed to ensuring everyone can contribute fully and progress fairly.
We regularly review our policies, practices, and outcomes to better understand and address barriers that may prevent colleagues from thriving. Together, we are building a culture where everyone feels seen, heard and valued, where everyone belongs, and where every colleague can make a meaningful contribution to supporting excellent patient care and delivering a better NHS estate.
