This policy applies to every location where the agency has facilities and operates and applies to all terms and conditions of employment including, but not limited to, hiring, promotion, demotion, layoff, return from layoff, termination, compensation, transfer, leaves of absence, discipline and selection for training and educational assistance.

NOI takes affirmative action to promote the full and fair employment of minorities, women, veterans, individuals with disabilities and other protected classes. Further, NOI will not knowingly use the services of, patronize or otherwise deal with any business, contractor, subcontractor or organization that engages in acts of unlawful discrimination. It is the policy and practice of NOI to administer all programs in a non-discriminatory manner, consistent with EEO, AA and fair housing requirements.

Non-Retaliation: Retaliation of any kind by our employees, managers, customers or vendors towards an employee or applicant, who in good faith opposes harassment or perceived discriminatory practices or who participates in any proceeding based on alleged harassment or discrimination as a party, witness or in any other capacity, will not be tolerated. Employees engaged in discriminatory actions and/or retaliation against any employee who makes a complaint of discrimination will be subject to the disciplinary process up to and including dismissal. Reporting: Discriminatory, harassing and retaliatory actions in the workplace will not be tolerated and should be reported to a supervisor or the Director of Human Resources immediately, or to the President/CEO if the complaint involves the Director of Human Resources.
