SCHEDULE 1
EQUAL OPPORTUNITIES POLICY

1. Equal opportunities statement

1.1 CounterCraft Group is committed to promoting equal opportunities in employment. You and any
job applicants will receive equal treatment regardless of age, disability, gender reassignment,
marital or civil partner status, pregnancy or maternity, race, colour, ethnic or national origin,
religion or belief, sex or sexual orientation (Protected Characteristics).

2. About this policy

2.1 This policy sets out our approach to equal opportunities and the avoidance of discrimination at
work. It applies to all aspects of employment with us, including recruitment, pay and conditions,
training, appraisals, promotion, conduct at work, disciplinary and grievance procedures, and
termination of employment.
2.2 CounterCraft Directors are responsible for this policy and any necessary training on equal
opportunities.
2.3 This policy does not form part of any employee’s contract of employment and we may amend it
at any time

3. Discrimination

3.1 You must not unlawfully discriminate against or harass other people including current and
former employees, job applicants, clients, customers, suppliers and visitors. This applies in the
workplace, outside the workplace (when dealing with customers, suppliers or other work-related
contacts, and on work-related trips or events including social events).
3.2 The following forms of discrimination are prohibited under this policy and are unlawful:

• 3.2.1 Direct discrimination: treating someone less favourably because of a Protected
  Characteristic. For example, rejecting a job applicant because of their religious views
  or because they might be gay.
• 3.2.2 Indirect discrimination: a provision, criterion or practice that applies to everyone but
  adversely affects people with a particular Protected Characteristic more than others,
  and is not justified.
• 3.2.3 Harassment: this includes sexual harassment and other unwanted conduct related to
  a Protected Characteristic, which has the purpose or effect of violating someone’s
  dignity or creating an intimidating, hostile, degrading, humiliating or offensive
  environment for them. Harassment is dealt with further in our Anti-harassment and
  Bullying Policy.
• 3.2.4 Victimisation: retaliation against someone who has complained or has supported
  someone else’s complaint about discrimination or harassment.
• 3.2.5 Disability discrimination: this includes direct and indirect discrimination, any
  unjustified less favourable treatment because of the effects of a disability, and failure
  to make reasonable adjustments to alleviate disadvantages caused by a disability

4. Recruitment and selection

4.1 Recruitment, promotion and other selection exercises such as redundancy selection will be
conducted on the basis of merit, against objective criteria that avoid discrimination. Shortlisting
should be done by more than one person if possible.

4.2 Vacancies should generally be advertised to a diverse section of the labour market.
Advertisements should avoid stereotyping or using wording that may discourage particular
groups from applying.
4.3 Job applicants should not be asked questions which might suggest an intention to discriminate
on grounds of a Protected Characteristic. For example, applicants should not be asked whether
they are pregnant or planning to have children.
4.4 Job applicants should not be asked about health or disability before a job offer is made, except
in the very limited circumstances allowed by law: for example, to check that the applicant could
perform an intrinsic part of the job (taking account of any reasonable adjustments), or to see if
any adjustments might be needed at interview because of a disability. Where necessary, job
offers can be made conditional on a satisfactory medical check. Health or disability questions
may be included in equal opportunities monitoring forms, which must not be used for selection
or decision-making purposes.

5. Disabilities

5.1 If you are disabled or become disabled, we encourage you to tell us about your condition sothat we can consider what reasonable adjustments or support may be appropriate.

6. Part-time and fixed-term work

6.1 Part-time and fixed-term employees should be treated the same as comparable full-time or
permanent employees and enjoy no less favourable terms and conditions (on a pro-rata basis
where appropriate), unless different treatment is justified.7. BREACHES OF THIS POLICY

7. Breaches of this policy

7.1 We take a strict approach to breaches of this policy, which will be dealt with in accordance with
our Disciplinary Procedure. Serious cases of deliberate discrimination may amount to gross
misconduct resulting in dismissal.
7.2 If you believe that you have suffered discrimination you can raise the matter through our
Grievance Procedure or Anti-harassment and Bullying Policy. Complaints will be treated in
confidence and investigated as appropriate.
7.3 You must not be victimised or retaliated against for complaining about discrimination. However,
making a false allegation deliberately and in bad faith will be treated as misconduct and dealt
with under our Disciplinary Procedure.

where you prefer not to raise it with your manager for any reason, you should submit your
concerns through the Whistleblowing Channel on the Intranet, which is managed by the HR
Department or, as a last option, contact any of the Founders of CounterCraft Group (David
Barroso, Daniel Brett, Fernando Braquehais). Contact details are at the end of this policy.
4.2 We will arrange a meeting with you as soon as possible to discuss your concern. You may bring
a colleague or union representative to any meetings under this policy. Your companion must
respect the confidentiality of your disclosure and any subsequent investigation.

5.1 The scope of this includes all employees of CounterCraft as a group. However, there may exist
specific policies for each subsidiary. In such cases, policies designed exclusively for
subsidiaries and those governed by local regulations will prevail above all.
