Equality policy

Loch Lomond Waterfront is committed to encouraging equality, fairness and inclusion amongst all our guests, staff and suppliers. The aim is for our workforce to represent all sections of society, and for everyone on our premises to feel respected and valued.

We are committed to fostering this every day and equality and fairness will be embedded in our culture and actions. Discrimination on the grounds of any of the protected characteristics of age, disability, gender reassignment, marriage and civil partnership, pregnancy and maternity, race, religion or belief, sex, and sexual orientation will not be tolerated.

Our relations with staff, guests and all who visit Loch Lomond Waterfront are very important to us and our goal is to ensure that all actions, communications and requests between staff, guests and suppliers are at all times respectful.
