4. Equity Policy


Introduction
Saracens Amateur Rugby Football Club recognises the importance of affording equity, equal opportunity and fair treatment to all present and potential employees and members.

The Club aims to ensure that all people, irrespective of their age, gender, ability, race, religion, ethnic origin, creed, colour, nationality, social status or sexual orientation, have a genuine and equal opportunity to participate in rugby union at all levels and in all roles. That includes participation as a beginner or elite performer, and as a coach, official, referee, manager, administrator or spectator.

In its relationships with members, employees, and in its provision of services, it is the aim of Saracens not to disadvantage any individual by imposing any conditions or requirements which cannot be justified.

Failure to comply may result in disciplinary action being taken.
