eQUAL

Opportunities

We are committed to the principles of equal pay for all our employees. We operate a consistent, fair, and transparent job evaluation scheme, to measure the relative value of all roles within our business.

 

We ensure there is no gender bias in our pay and remuneration systems and understand that equal pay is a moral obligation and a legal right in accordance with the Equality Act 2010.

 

As we look to tackle inequality of all kinds, we will extend this level of scrutiny to all minority groups within our business and will report with the same transparency.

We are committed to conducting regular pay audits and pay reviews and taking swift and specific action to address any inequality should it be highlighted.

SOCIAL inclusion

and openess

As a purpose led, values-driven business, social justice and a sense of fairness are important to us Adnams is unequivocal in its opposition to discrimination in all its forms, towards any group or individual.

 

We actively stand against-racism and discrimination and drive positive change within our business, our communities, and our industry, now and always. Racism or discrimination of any kind has no place in society and silence is not an option.

 

We are aware of the long-standing position we hold within our industry, and our role in East Anglian life. We therefore actively interact with key bodies to understand and contribute to issues that directly affect our industry, our business, our communities, and our teams.

SOCIAL

RESPONSIBILITY

We want to do the right thing, the right way, across all we do; even when no one is looking. We have to put our principles into practice and look beyond ourselves. This is especially true in our commitment to equality, diversity, and social justice.

 

We’re lucky that we have a beautiful beach on our doorstep, so getting out for a walk at lunchtime is rarely a chore. We’ve developed a range of low-alcohol beers and wines which can be enjoyed as part of a healthy lifestyle - remember, you can have too much of a good thing!
