1.     Guidelines  

 

InSemi believes in building a diverse, inclusive and equitable workplace. 

InSemi shall ensure that no applicant or employee is discriminated on the grounds of his/her disability in regard to any position for which the applicant or employee meets the inherent requirements of the position and is able to perform.

 

2.      Accessible Workplace support 

 

  1. Reasonable Accommodations are facilitated, where required, to improve accessibility and create an inclusive work environment so as to maximize the ability of an employee to perform the job. (Reasonable accommodation means necessary and appropriate modification and adjustments, without imposing a disproportionate or undue burden in a particular case on the company, to ensure to persons with disabilities the enjoyment or exercise of rights equally with others in the offices of InSemi).
  2. Information essential to the job and workplace, such as job instructions, employee handbook, information on support facility, intranet, grievance procedures or health and safety procedures are communicated to employees with disabilities in a format which ensures that they are fully informed.
  3. Employees with disabilities are assisted to identify their prospective next assignment/available opportunity.
  4. Condition of the applicant’s and employee’s disability is considered in determining the location of work.
  5. InSemi has a special loan policy for employees with disability working in India locations which enables them to purchase assistive devices that improve their overall ability and quality of life.

3.     Learning and Awareness

  1. Training opportunities are made available to employees
  2. Alternate formats such as the use of readers or adapted materials are facilitated, where required, for employees with disabilities.
  3. Training handbooks and materials are made accessible to persons with communication impairments and partial visual impairments, including alternative formats for printed materials and use of visual illustrations, in place of text when the need arises.

4.     Employee Resource Group 

We have an employee resource group (ERG) for InSemi’ employees with disability and their allies. This ERG aims to create a safe and inclusive work environment for employees with disability. The ERG runs campaigns and programs to not only sensitize employees, but also invite employees to provide their inputs on how they can foster inclusion of employees with disability.  

 

5.     Extra Leave

 

An employee’s request for extra leave, for a reason related to her/his disability, will be treated as authorized unpaid absence from work.

 

6.     Grievance Handling 

 

  1. In case of any grievances, the employees can raise a complaint by writing to the assigned HR POC.
  2. InSemi will not retaliate nor discriminate against any employee or applicant because he or she has opposed any unlawful employment practice or filed a charge of employment discrimination, testified, assisted, or participated in any manner in an investigation, proceeding, or hearing related to employment practices.
