Our Business: Diversity and Inclusion
Richardson Swift aim to be an equal opportunities employer. We are determined to ensure that no applicant or employee receives less favourable treatment on the grounds of gender, age, disability, religion, belief, sexual orientation, marital status, or race, or is disadvantaged by conditions or requirements which cannot be shown to be justifiable.
We have employees with a wide range of ages across the firm whom have a wide range of skills and qualifications. We have a higher percentage of female to male staff within the firm which is more than normal within the profession. We do not discriminate against religion, beliefs, or sexual orientation. Our staff profile of ethnicity mirrors the ethnic composition of our local Bath area.
