Non-discrimination

At Zender Environmental, we value all employees, job candidates, and community members we serve as unique individuals, and we welcome the variety of experiences they bring to our organization. As such, Zender Environmental has a strict non-discrimination policy. We believe everyone should be treated equally, and we shall not discriminate on the basis of race, color, religion, sex, national origin, ancestry, age, order of protection status, marital status, sexual orientation (including gender-related identity), physical or mental disability, conviction record, military status or unfavorable discharge from military service or any other characteristic protected by law. Zender Environmental’s non-discrimination policy extends to all aspects of the organization’s operation including, but not limited to, the hiring and firing of staff, selection of volunteers and vendors, and provision of services. We are committed to providing an inclusive and welcoming environment for all members of our staff, clients, and volunteers.

Zender Environmental is an equal opportunity employer for all qualified employees and applicants. All decisions regarding employment are made without regard for race, color, religion, sex, national origin, ancestry, age, order of protection status, marital status, sexual orientation (including gender-related identity), physical or mental disability unrelated to ability, conviction record, and military status or unfavorable discharge from military service.

Employees or applicants for employment, volunteers, or program participants who believe they were subjected to discrimination and elect to seek redress for discrimination must initiate the complaint process within 60 days of the alleged discriminatory event through Zender’s designated Civil Rights Coordinator Lynn Zender.  Please consult the Zender Grievance procedure for details.
