Carter Morris Talent Solutions - our values aren’t just “company speak”
Our company values mirror the things that each member of our team holds dear to our own personal values and modeled behaviours. We continually reassess the policies, strategies and operational processes of our company to ensure they reflect our values. We also hold each other accountable; with a commitment that any issues with these values and/or an inability to positively contribute to our own team and external stakeholder relationships, will be regarded as a performance issue equal to not performing primary job responsibilities, and expulsion from our firm. We’re reminded everyday of our core values:
Integrity - Externally and internally, we have zero tolerance for dishonest, fraudulent, or “gain at the cost of others” behaviours, statements and actions.
Agility - We move fast. Priorities constantly change with a moment’s notice, so we are always prepared to flex. We are acutely aware of knock on delays as a result of one person’s inaction.
Simplicity – We’re not about creating needless work for ourselves or our stakeholders. We are focused on the efficiency of our own work actions, considerate of how we impact the workload of other team members and all stakeholders. Adherence to an efficient process, general thoughtfulness, and delivering on our promises without excuses or fuss, is key.
People - Externally and internally, we will treat people with decency, fairness, respect, empathy and confidentiality. We will consciously work to find ways to help others to succeed rather than be setup to fail.
Additionally, the entire Carter Morris team is committed to valuing diversity and dignity at work; and we seek to provide all job seeking candidates and our own employees with the opportunity for employment, career and personal development on the basis of ability, qualifications and suitability for the work as well as potential to be developed into a job. We wholeheartedly believe that people from different backgrounds can bring fresh ideas, thinking and approaches which makes the way work is undertaken more effective, efficient and innovative – be it with colleagues, hiring leader clients, job seeking candidates, suppliers, partners or any other person associated with Carter Morris Talent Solutions.
We are mindful that people we are working for and working with can be subject to discrimination and/or harassment on a wide variety of grounds including:
age
gender / gender reassignment
marriage / civil partnership
pregnancy, adoption, parental or carer situation
race, ethnic origin, nationality or skin color
sexual orientation
religious or political convictions
military service, historic or ongoing
willingness to challenge situations and behaviors, or “whistle blowing”
disabilities, sensory impairments or learning difficulties
status as ex-offenders
real or suspected infection with a blood borne virus (e.g. AIDS/HIV)
membership of a trade union or activities associated with membership
We are acutely conscious of the forms that this discrimination and/or harassment can take.
As individuals, and as a team, we have a zero tolerance policy for direct or indirect discrimination against any person in the course of our day to day business dealings. We have a zero tolerance policy for direct or indirect harassment or any conduct which can be defined as unwanted and offensive and that affects the dignity of an individual or group of individuals. We have a zero tolerance policy on sexual harassment, defined as “unwanted conduct of a sexual nature, or other conduct based on sex, affecting the dignity of a person at work”, inclusive of unwelcome physical, verbal or non-verbal conduct.
In our own small way, we will continue working to help achieve equality in the workplace for generations now and in times to come.
