People and standards
Employment
VAT Loans embraces diversity and values everyone for their merits. The employment page focuses on equal opportunity, fair treatment, pay, working time, labour standards, and how those responsibilities connect back to customer fairness.
Equal opportunity
Employment is described as fair and consistent regardless of race, colour, gender, religion, nationality, sexual orientation, age, or disability.
Pay and benefits
VAT Loans says it pays above the minimum amount and supports equal pay for work of equal value while complying with national rules.
Working time
The page says employees are not expected to work more than 48 hours regularly and should receive at least one or two non-working days in seven.
Labour standards
The policy rejects forced labour, human trafficking, and child labour, and says nobody under 18 is employed.
Employment overview
VAT Loans embraces diversity and values everyone for their merits. The page says each individual is treated fairly and consistently in employment, with equality of opportunity and treatment regardless of race, colour, gender, religion, nationality, sexual orientation, age, or disability.
This section is the core employment statement on the live page. It frames employment standards as a fairness and equality commitment rather than a narrow HR rule list.
Pay and benefits
VAT Loans says it pays above what is deemed to be the minimum amount. It also says it complies with all national regulations on pay and benefits and supports equal pay for work of equal value.
Working hours
VAT Loans says it complies with national regulations on working hours. The page states that employees are not allowed to work more than 48 hours a week on a regular basis, and that they should have access to at least one, and often two, non-working days per seven-day period on average.
Forced labour
The page says each individual should be free to choose to terminate their employment in line with established laws, rules, and regulations. VAT Loans states that it does not use involuntary or forced labour, including indentured, bonded, slave, or human trafficked labour. It also states that it opposes child labour and does not employ anyone under the age of 18.
Treating Customers Fairly (TCF)
TCF is described as an important element of FCA requirements and a fundamental part of the spirit of the FCA guidelines. On this page, VAT Loans links TCF back to employment and corporate responsibility by saying it is about reasonably meeting customer expectations and wider responsibility standards.
