DiversityOur view on a diverse work force is most eloquently expressed by Xerox Chairman and Chief Executive Officer Anne M. Mulcahy: "I'm convinced diversity is a key to success. Experience tells us that the most diverse companies -- companies ruled by a hierarchy of imagination and filled with people of all ages, races, and backgrounds -- are the most successful over time.""Somehow, diversity breeds creativity. Maybe it's because people with different backgrounds challenge each other's underlying assumptions, freeing everybody from convention and orthodoxy." "Xerox’s Diversity initiatives have been in place for many years and have won them many awards around the World. Xerox’s innovative practices have frequently been used as benchmarks by other organisations." Diversity StatementXerox promotes a workplace culture of dignity, respect and openness to diversity which is reflected in the actions and behaviour of all employees.Xerox is committed to equal opportunity of employment and all employment decisions are based on merit, qualifications, and abilities. Employment related decisions are not influenced or affected by an employee's race, colour, nationality, religion, sex, marital status, family status, sexual orientation, disability, age or membership of the travelling community. The company fully endorses a working environment free from discrimination, harassment and sexual harassment. Xerox values the contribution of all employees and requires every employee to refrain from any type of behaviour which may be interpreted as bullying, discrimination, harassment and sexual harassment. Xerox strives for recruitment, employment, training and promotion practices and policies that are free of barriers, both systemic and deliberate, that directly or indirectly discriminate against people. Xerox assures its employees that any concerns or reports made (under this policy) will be treated confidentially and without fear of reprisal. ____________ Xavier Heiss, Director & General Manager Xerox Ireland Operations | ||||
