Robin’s Diary
Women in the workplace!
There is a lot of chatter nowadays about ‘Equal Opportunities’ for both men and women at work, and I must admit I have not intentionally favoured one or the other.
It is interesting to note however that we now have more women than men in three departments of the business, and we have a young lady from our initiative with the Hunslet Club, who could be our first female apprentice technician! This has been achieved completely on the strength of the candidates, with no advantage given to any sex.
Strange though it may seem, I do hear from friends and colleagues in other businesses that the drive to be ‘Politically Correct’ and have the ‘right mix of staff’ to suit some new guidelines, actually creates discrimination, as targets have to be achieved. This must be very off-putting for staff if they discover they have only been given the role based on quotas and targets, rather than for their capability of doing the job.
Maybe I'm still a bit old school, but surely it must be better for everyone, if roles are given to the people best suited to fulfil them, regardless of anything else. Maybe I’m just fortunate that we get a great cross-section of society who want to work here, all of whom understand common sense is by far the best policy, not just for dealing with customers, but in terms of staff, recruitment, and in fact generally – it’s just a pity that modern society seems hell bent on rules when, yet again, common sense is the best way forward.
“Some degree of inequality in income and wealth, of course, would occur even with completely equal opportunity because variations in effort, skill, and luck will produce variations in outcomes.” Janet Yellen

For ‘Engleberg’, read ‘Outlander replacement’
While Shogun has been traditionally Mitsubishi’s product spine, states Iain Robertson, it would be fair to say that the Outlander has become its most recognisable model of the past decade, a factor soon to change forever.
