Equal Employment Opportunity

Vance Thompson Vision is an equal opportunity employer, which means that all employees are treated fairly and without discrimination. Vance Thompson Vision does not tolerate discrimination within our organization, whether it’s based on an individual's race, color, religion, sex (including pregnancy, gender identity, or sexual orientation), national origin, age, disability, or any other legally protected characteristic under applicable federal, state, or local law. Employment‐related decisions will be based solely on permissible considerations, such as business need, merit, qualifications, and performance. Our commitment to equal opportunity applies to all aspects of employment, including recruiting, hiring, training, compensation, benefits, promotions, transfers, and separations. Diversity is valued, and our goal is to create a work environment that is inclusive and welcoming to all individuals. Any employee who violates this policy will be subject to discipline, which may include employee separation.
If you ever feel as though you’re being discriminated against or if you have witnessed such conduct involving others, please make sure to speak up by reporting your concerns immediately to your direct leader or the People and Culture team. Our goal is to ensure hiring and employment practices are consistent for everyone. Reported concerns of discrimination will be promptly and thoroughly investigated. Actions taken to investigate and resolve concerns will be conducted confidentially to the extent practicable and appropriate, but complete confidentiality cannot be guaranteed. Further, Vance Thompson Vision does not tolerate any form of retaliation or discrimination against an individual who raises concerns regarding discrimination in good faith, even if the investigation produces insufficient evidence to support it. If an individual believes that he or she has been retaliated against, he or she should report it in the same manner outlined above.

Reasonable Accommodations

Vance Thompson Vision is committed to providing equal opportunities to individuals, regardless of their disabilities. As such, Vance Thompson Vision provides reasonable accommodations to qualified individuals with disabilities unless such accommodations would impose an undue hardship or would cause a direct threat to workplace safety. For purposes of this policy, the term “reasonable accommodation” generally means any modification or adjustment made (1) to a job application process to enable a qualified applicant with a disability to be considered for the applicable position; or (2) to a work environment to allow a qualified employee with a disability to perform the essential functions of the job or to enjoy equal benefits and privileges of employment. Ultimately, the determination as to whether to provide an accommodation or whether a particular accommodation is reasonable will be made by Vance Thompson Vision on a case-by-case basis.

Requesting Reasonable Accommodations

If you believe you need a reasonable accommodation, please contact the People and Culture team. Vance Thompson Vision encourages individuals with disabilities to come forward and request reasonable accommodations. When a qualified individual with a disability has requested an accommodation, Vance Thompson Vision will involve the individual in the process of determining potential reasonable accommodations and may offer alternative reasonable accommodations. Vance Thompson Vision may request documentation from the individual’s medical provider to support the request for reasonable accommodation.
