At Lochview Rural Training, we are committed to Scotland’s Fair Work principles, ensuring our staff, volunteers, and students are treated with dignity, respect, and fairness. We believe that a happy, inclusive working environment is the foundation for personal and professional growth, and we work hard to make sure everyone feels valued and supported.
We demonstrate our commitment to Fair Work through:
- Effective Voice – We actively listen to our staff, students, and volunteers, encouraging open communication and feedback to help shape our activities, policies, and future direction.
- Opportunity – We provide meaningful learning, training, and employment opportunities, helping individuals gain the skills, confidence, and experience needed to thrive in rural industries.
- Security – We offer fair and transparent contracts, pay above the real Living Wage, and ensure everyone has access to safe, healthy working conditions.
- Fulfilment – We create a positive workplace culture where individuals are supported to achieve their goals, develop their skills, and feel pride in the work they do.
- Respect – We promote equality, diversity, and inclusion in all that we do, ensuring every individual is treated fairly, regardless of background or circumstances.
Our mission goes beyond training – we aim to improve wellbeing, reduce social isolation, and strengthen our rural community by promoting the therapeutic and social value of working outdoors and alongside animals.
By embedding Fair Work in everything we do, we ensure that Lochview Rural Training remains a place where people can grow, contribute, and flourish.
