Accreditations and awards 

 

ISO 9000:2000


Computershare Voucher Services is proud to have been awarded ISO 9000:2000. ISO 9000 is a family of standards for quality management systems. ISO 9000 is maintained by ISO, the International Organisation for Standardisation and is administered by accreditation and certification bodies. The rules are updated, as the requirements motivate changes over time.

Investor in people 


Computershare Voucher Services is currently working towards Investor in People accreditation.

In 1991 when Investors in People was launched Michael Howard said "Investors in People is a standard designed by business, which will be met by business, because it is in the interests of business. This is why it will survive."

Equal Opportunity Policy


We are committed to the principle of equal opportunity in employment.

Accordingly, our employment policies for recruitment, selection, training, development and promotion are designed to ensure that no job applicant or employee receives less favourable treatment on the grounds of race, colour, nationality, ethnic or national origin, disability, trade membership or non-membership, sex or marital status. The objective of this policy is to ensure that individuals are selected, promoted and otherwise treated solely on the basis of their relevant aptitudes, skills and abilities.

Management has the primary responsibility for the successful implementation of the policy by:

  • not discriminating in the course of employment against fellow employees or job applicants
  • not inducing or attempting to induce others to practise unlawful discrimination
  • bringing to the attention of employees that they will be subject to disciplinary action for failure to adhere to the policy.

Individual employees have the responsibility to ensure that they assist the Company in achieving these objectives by:

  • not discriminating in the course of employment against fellow employees, customers, suppliers or members of the public with whom they come into contact during the course of their duties
  • not inducing or attempting to induce others to practise unlawful discrimination
  • reporting any discriminatory action to their Line Manager

The successful operation of this policy necessitates a contribution from each employee and all employees have an obligation to report any act of discrimination known to them.

Employees who consider that they are a victim of unlawful discrimination may raise the issue through the Grievance Procedure.

Computershare Voucher Services has declared itself an "Equal Opportunities Employer" and all staff must make every effort to make this declaration a reality.
