Diversity

At Thomas Cook Group, we will not tolerate any discrimination or harassment on the grounds of race, colour, nationality, ethnic origin, national origin, gender, sexual orientation, gender re-assignment status, being married or a civil partner, religion, belief, disability or age.

Our activities to discourage discrimination and promote diversity include employee training and monitoring the diversity of our employees. In Germany, Thomas Cook and Condor are both signatories to Chancellor Angela Merkel's Diversity Charter.

In 2010, there were no cases of discrimination raised among our employees. We will continue to be vigilant on the issue and to raise awareness of the value of diversity to our business. Not only do our employees deserve this, we also believe strongly that, in a diverse society and with a diverse customer base, our business benefits from a diverse workforce. We also support home working, which enables some people, particularly working mothers and those with disabilities, to take jobs that they might otherwise be unable to.

In the UK, we now have 193 regular home workers and our North American At-Home-Agent programme now has 133 agents working from home.
