Helping Hands is committed to providing a work environment that is free from exploitation, harassment, and violence. We recognize that sexual harassment is not only a criminal offense but also a violation of human rights. Our organization takes all necessary measures to ensure the safety, security, dignity, rights, and equality of our employees, with a strong emphasis on protecting women.
In accordance with the law, it is our duty as an employer to prevent or deter the occurrence of sexual harassment and to establish a procedure for resolving, settling, or prosecuting acts of harassment. We are dedicated to taking all required steps to safeguard our employees.
The purpose of this policy is to foster awareness about child protection and to establish guidelines for preventing and reporting child abuse by any stakeholders of Helping Hands. As an organization dedicated to the well-being of children, we have zero tolerance for any form of child abuse or exploitation. This policy aligns with the UN Convention on the Rights of the Child (1989).
This policy is a testament to our commitment to upholding the four fundamental rights of children: the right to survival, development, protection, and participation, based on the principles of the child's best interest, non-discrimination, and the right of every child to be heard.
Helping Hands is dedicated to ensuring equal rights and opportunities for all, including people with disabilities. We recognize that disability can be both a cause and a consequence of poverty, and without addressing disability rights, we cannot achieve our vision of dignity and equality for all. We actively promote inclusion and work to remove barriers that prevent people with disabilities from fully participating in society. Equal employment opportunities are offered to all without discrimination.
All of Helping Hands’ work is aimed at creating a gender-just environment, promoting equity and equality in all areas of life. We strive for joint decision-making and leadership, where policies, structures, and decisions that impact the lives of women and men are shaped by their own interests and priorities. We are committed to gender justice, non-discrimination, equal opportunities, and gender-friendly practices in the workplace.
