We do not tolerate discrimination or harassment based on the foregoing matters. We believe in creating an environment where people feel comfortable at work and able to realize their full potential. Assessments are conducted from time to time to ensure that our premises are accessible to people with disabilities. In addition, these assessments make certain we are complying with all applicable laws and regulations.
