Armour demonstrates its commitment to equity and diversity, by providing a supportive work environment and corporate culture that welcomes members of designated groups. We stand by the Canadian Human Rights Code which prohibits discrimination on the basis of race, ancestry, place of origin, colour, ethnic origin, citizenship, creed, age, sex, a record of offences, marital status, family status, handicap, and sexual orientation. We also enforce the Human Rights Act which is against the law to discriminate on the basis of race, sex, colour, age, national or ethnic origin, religion, marital status, family status, disability, sexual orientation, and a pardoned criminal conviction.

​

ASPS does not condone any form of discrimination. It endorses and embraces the Canadian Human Rights Act. It is our objective to ensure that all employees have an equal opportunity to progress within our company. Equity and cultural diversity provide for the effective management of human resources and a representative workforce that reflects the diversity of the communities in which we operate.

​

Armour  has undertaken the following measures to ensure employment equity and diversity in the workplace:

  

• The appointment of its Human Resources Manager to manage the equity plan and to implement and coordinate the employment equity plan and to implement and coordinate employment equity and cultural diversity initiatives internally and with external designated groups​

• Creating and maintaining a workplace free from discrimination and intervene when discrimination problems arise

• Assist in investigations by assigning a co-investigator, reviewing results, making recommendations ensuring they are acted upon.

 

Any person or persons who feel they have been the subject of inequitable treatment should report it immediately to Human Resources or to their manager.
