Equality Policy
  1. PENTATHLON-SCOTLAND believes that equality is not just about equal numbers, but is concerned more with the principles of fairness, justice, inclusion and respect. Equality in modern pentathlon and activities is about doing all we can to ensure that everyone has an equal opportunity to participate if they choose to do so, and that no one is discriminated against for reasons such as gender, race, disability, age, religious or political belief, sexual orientation, social background, marital status or pregnancy. It is also about doing all we can to ensure that any barriers that stand in the way of people who do not traditionally participate in modern pentathlon activities are removed.
  2. PENTATHLON-SCOTLAND is committed to promoting and achieving equality, and to ensuring that unfair discrimination is eliminated. It believes that unfair discrimination is totally unacceptable. Discrimination on the grounds of gender, race, disability, age, religious or political belief, sexual orientation, social background, marital status or pregnancy will not be tolerated within PENTATHLON-SCOTLAND.
Corporate Commitments
  1. PENTATHLON-SCOTLAND will ensure that equality is given due regard from the outset in the development of all its policies, programmes and activities. It will ensure that the principles of equality and inclusion are understood by all its staff and board members.
  2. It is committed to eliminating discrimination and will address any form of unfair discrimination that occurs within the organisation.
  3. It will continue to comply with its statutory and legislative obligations to eliminate discrimination and increase equity in modern pentathlon activities and will ensure that it remains aware of new developments in discrimination and equality legislation.
