Tesco works in a competitive market where products, stores, tastes and even the way customers shop are constantly changing. Diverse communities mean that it needs to recruit and train people who reflect this diversity, so that all sections of society are included. Tesco’s policy is to ensure that its workforce has a balance of different people. It is keen to search for talent wherever it lies. Diversity, inclusion and equal opportunities are so central to the workplace that there are laws to ensure fair treatment. For example, it is against the law to make unfair choices against people on grounds of age, race, disability, gender or sexual orientation. This is called discrimination.
