Drax is committed to the principles of equal opportunity and ensuring there is no unfair discrimination against anyone in every aspect of work carried out in the company’s name

Following the Macpherson report that highlighted areas in which institutional racism were found in society, Drax has endeavoured to make sure this culture does not exist within the station.

It is our intention to fully comply with all law and legislation relating to equal opportunities. We do this both to protect the business and to ensure that the culture within the organisation is free from discrimination and bias.

The aim of our equal opportunities procedure is to ensure that no employee or job applicant receives less favourable treatment on any grounds, including sex, age, marital status, nationality, race, colour, religious beliefs, ethnic and national origins or sexual orientation, in addition, to not discriminating against employees or applicants on the grounds of a disability.
