Diversity and Inclusion
At Sinclair Law we value and support diversity as an equal-opportunity employer. We work within the spirit and the practice of the Equality Act 2010 by promoting a culture of respect and dignity and actively challenging discrimination, should it ever arise.
- We are committed to ensuring that the recruitment, retention and career development of staff is on merit, on the basis of justifiable job requirements and equality of opportunity for all applicants and staff. We support our managers to demonstrate principles of diversity and inclusion in their everyday activities, roles and functions.
- We believe that equality, inclusion and diversity are key to creating and maintaining a happy and productive workforce. To us, it is a culture, not just a policy to be reviewed once a year and filed away. It is who we are.
- We are committed to fostering a culture that allows all individuals to bring their authentic selves to work every day without any fear of detrimental treatment from anyone. We value differences of opinion and different perspectives on the world, and together this helps create an inclusive culture in which everyone feels valued for their differences.
- We want to recruit, develop and retain the most talented people, regardless of their background, and make the best use of their talents. At Sinclair Law we are guided by our values in everything we do, and recognise that being a diverse and inclusive employer helps us fulfil our responsibility to make a difference in the legal sector and beyond.
“Equality, inclusion and diversity don’t simply start on their first day of employment, in fact it starts before the applicant has even submitted their application form to us. It begins from the first moment an individual learns about our firm, from how we portray ourselves online and the language we use to how we can provide reasonable adjustments for those who need it even before applying for a position.” – Lucy Hart, Director
