Thurso Community Café

Thurso Community Café is committed to adopting and promoting the principles of Fair Work First as outlined by the Scottish Government. We recognise that fair work practices are essential to delivering high-quality services and supporting a motivated, inclusive, and sustainable workforce.

We confirm that:

• We pay all employees at least the real Living Wage and are committed to fair and equitable pay practices.

• We provide secure and appropriate contracts, and do not make inappropriate use of zero-hours contracts.

• We foster an environment where workers have an effective voice, and we encourage open communication and engagement with staff on matters affecting them.

• We are committed to equality, diversity, and inclusion, and aim to create a workplace free from discrimination and harassment.

• We support flexible and family-friendly working practices wherever possible.

• We invest in workforce development through training, learning opportunities, and support for staff progression.

• We prioritise health, safety, and wellbeing in the workplace.

We confirm that these commitments are in place and will be maintained throughout the duration of any funding or contract supported by this statement.
