Operations
Ensuring that we promote and support diversity, equality, and inclusion in the workplace play an important part in our business. We are committed to providing equal opportunities for all, promoting diversity, and making sure discrimination plays no part in our dealings with colleagues, clients or other third parties.
We want people to be the best version of themselves at work and we work hard to provide a workplace where everyone is treated fairly and with respect at all times. This means everyone at Trethowans is expected to treat others with the same attention, courtesy and respect they would expect in return, no matter who they are, where they are from, or how they look.
