Equality & Diversity

1. Our commitment

Samson Housing Group is committed to promoting equality, diversity and inclusion across all aspects of our business — in how we employ people, how we work with partners, and in the housing outcomes we deliver for residents.

We believe that a diverse and inclusive organisation is a stronger one, and we actively work to ensure that no person is treated less favourably on the grounds of age, disability, gender reassignment, marriage and civil partnership, pregnancy and maternity, race, religion or belief, sex, or sexual orientation.

2. Employment

We are an equal opportunities employer. All recruitment, promotion and employment decisions are made on merit. We take steps to ensure our recruitment processes are fair, transparent and free from bias.

3. Service delivery

We are committed to delivering housing services that are accessible and responsive to the needs of all residents, including those with protected characteristics. We work with our care and support partners to ensure that the people we house receive appropriate, dignified and person-centred support.

4. Partnerships

We expect our partners, contractors and suppliers to share our commitment to equality and diversity. We include equality considerations in our due diligence and procurement processes.

5. Reporting and accountability

We monitor our equality and diversity performance and review this policy annually. Any concerns about discrimination or unfair treatment should be raised with a senior manager or reported to info@samsonhousing.org.uk.
