Fairness, Inclusion & Respect

Fairness, Inclusion & Respect

Our Managing Director, a GOLD-level FIR ambassador, has demonstrated exceptional leadership in promoting diversity, equity, and inclusion within Veritech.

This outstanding achievement places Paul among only three individuals to have reached FIR GOLD status within the Supply Chain Sustainability School — a reflection of his unwavering dedication to advancing equality, inclusion, and respect both within Veritech Systems and across the wider industry.

Earning Gold status is more than a personal accolade — it recognises those who consistently champion FIR values and embed them into the heart of their organisation’s culture and daily operations.

Paul’s leadership has been instrumental in building a workplace where every team member feels supported, valued, and empowered. At Veritech, inclusivity isn’t just a principle — it’s a way of working, and much of that is thanks to Paul’s passion and drive.

He implemented fair and inclusive hiring practices, ensuring that our recruitment processes are free from bias and accessible to everyone.

He fostered an inclusive workplace culture where all employees, regardless of gender, race, ethnicity, sexual orientation, or disability, feel valued and respected.

About us FIR
FIR Logo

Here at Veritech Systems, we value our people and their contribution to the successful delivery of our services.

We are proud of the balance and diversity of our workforce and the skills and proficiency our employees offer to our customers.

We actively work with SCHOOL, making all staff aware of the opportunities and our variety of job roles within Veritech Systems.

Each year we invest in training, including new and existing staff and directors, and we provide opportunities which develop the ability of teams within our business.

Encouraging growth through positive employee engagement.

Veritech, as a security company, understands the importance of promoting fairness, inclusion, and respect in the workplace. By doing so, Veritech can create a positive and productive work environment where all employees feel valued, supported, and motivated to provide the best security services possible. When Veritech's security professionals feel that they are being treated fairly and with respect, they are more likely to be engaged in their work, which can lead to increased efficiency, reliability, and safety. In addition, promoting inclusion and diversity in the workplace can help Veritech attract and retain a wider range of talent, which can lead to a more diverse and inclusive security team that can better serve the needs of clients from different backgrounds. Ultimately, fostering fairness, inclusion, and respect in the workplace can help Veritech deliver better security services and build stronger relationships with its clients.

Veritech is taking several steps to encourage fairness, inclusion, and respect in the workplace, including:

  1. Establish clear policies and procedures that promote a culture of respect and inclusion, and ensure that all employees are aware of these policies and their importance.
  2. Provide training and education to employees on topics such as unconscious bias, cultural competency, and respectful communication, to help them better understand and appreciate diverse perspectives.
  3. Foster an environment where employees feel comfortable speaking up about instances of discrimination or harassment, and ensure that these reports are taken seriously and addressed promptly.
  4. Actively seek out and promote diversity in hiring and promotion decisions, and ensure that all employees have equal opportunities to succeed and advance in the organisation.
  5. Encourage and support employee resource groups, such as those for women, LGBTQ employees, or employees from different cultural or ethnic backgrounds, to promote a sense of community and belonging.
  6. Regularly gather feedback from employees on how the company can better support fairness, inclusion, and respect, and use this feedback to inform ongoing efforts to improve the workplace culture.

By taking these steps, Veritech is creating a workplace culture that values and prioritises fairness, inclusion, and respect, which can lead to increased employee engagement, better service for clients, and a stronger, more sustainable business overall.

Since changing our security systems over to Veritech we have been provided with a fantastic customer support network and have built a great working relationship with them. Their security systems work great in conjunction with our secure welfare units and temporary accommodation on a variety of different projects. Everyone at the company from those in the office to the engineers and security staff that visit our premises are extremely professional. Their response times have been second to none and we look forward to partnering with them for many more years
