• Opportunity – Kilmartin Museum undertakes a fair and transparent recruitment process with all job opportunities advertised internally and invests in training for all its staff, focusing on organisational priorities and individual personal development.

• Security – Kilmartin Museum is committed to paying the Real Living Wage. The Museum does not use, or issue inappropriate zero-hour contracts and opposes the use of fire and rehire practice.

• Respect – Kilmartin Museum staff are entitled to be treated with respect and dignity at work and have a personal responsibility for ensuring that they treat others the way in which they would expect to be treated. The Museum recognises dignity at work to mean being free to work without experiencing bullying, harassment, discrimination or victimisation.
