Applications from individuals are encouraged regardless of age, disability, sex, gender reassignment, sexual orientation, pregnancy and maternity, race, religion or belief and marriage or civil partnership status.

Ban the Box

We support the Ban the Box initiative, a campaign which creates a fair opportunity for people with convictions to compete for jobs. We do this by removing the tick box from application forms and we ask about criminal convictions later in the recruitment process.

Bristol Equality Charter

We are also part of the Bristol Equality Charter, a commitment Bristol organisations make to help improve equality, diversity and inclusion across the city.

Equality, diversity and inclusion

It’s hugely important to us that our organisation reflects the diversity of our community, service users and partners. We understand that as a company we are underrepresented by ethnic minorities, women and LGBTQ+ people across our workforce and we want to change this. Bristol Waste Company is committed to targeting these groups during our recruitment process and welcome candidates who can contribute greater diversity of representation at all levels of our business.
