Equality, Diversity & Inclusion

This Equality, Diversity & Inclusion (EDI) Policy outlines BootHop's commitment to creating an inclusive, respectful, fair, and accessible environment for all employees, contractors, partners, customers, and platform users.

BootHop recognises that diversity strengthens innovation, collaboration, and service delivery. As a logistics coordination and technology platform, we are committed to promoting equal opportunity across all areas of our operations and to maintaining a culture where people are treated with dignity and respect.

This policy applies to:

• Employees
• Contractors and consultants
• Platform users
• Delivery partners and service providers
• Recruitment processes
• Business partnerships and collaborations

BootHop is committed to providing equal opportunities and fair treatment regardless of:

• Age
• Disability
• Gender identity or expression
• Marital or civil partnership status
• Pregnancy or maternity
• Race, ethnicity, or nationality
• Religion or belief
• Sex
• Sexual orientation
• Socioeconomic background

Discrimination, harassment, victimisation, bullying, or unfair treatment of any kind will not be tolerated.

BootHop is committed to ensuring that decisions relating to recruitment, engagement, progression, access to services, and professional treatment are based on merit, suitability, conduct, and legitimate business needs.

BootHop values diversity and aims to create an environment where individuals feel respected, supported, and able to contribute fully.

As a technology and logistics platform operating across multiple communities and regions, BootHop seeks to:

• Encourage inclusive participation
• Promote fair access to services and opportunities
• Support diverse perspectives and innovation
• Build a respectful and professional working culture
• Foster an environment free from exclusionary or discriminatory behaviour

We believe that inclusive thinking leads to better decision-making, stronger partnerships, and better service outcomes.

BootHop is committed to fair and unbiased recruitment practices.

Recruitment and selection decisions will be based on:

• Skills
• Qualifications
• Experience
• Suitability for the role

BootHop will not discriminate during hiring, onboarding, promotion, training, or any other employment-related process. As an early-stage company, our recruitment processes may remain lean, but we are committed to ensuring they are fair, professional, and inclusive.

BootHop aims to improve accessibility across its digital platform, communications, and operations wherever reasonably practicable.

This includes:

• Clear communication
• Inclusive digital experiences
• Consideration of accessibility requirements
• Continuous improvement of platform usability

We recognise that accessibility is an ongoing process and are committed to improving where appropriate as the company grows.

Any concerns relating to discrimination, harassment, bullying, or unfair treatment may be reported confidentially through BootHop's official communication channels.

Concerns may be raised through:

• Management
• A relevant BootHop contact
• info@boothop.com

All concerns will be reviewed fairly, sensitively, and appropriately. BootHop will not tolerate retaliation against any person who raises a genuine concern in good faith.

All employees, contractors, partners, and representatives of BootHop are expected to:

• Treat others with dignity and respect
• Promote inclusive behaviour
• Avoid discriminatory conduct
• Support a positive and professional environment

Management is responsible for monitoring compliance with this policy and for taking appropriate action where concerns arise.

This policy will be reviewed periodically as BootHop grows to ensure continued effectiveness, legal compliance, and alignment with operational practices.

BootHop is committed to continuously improving its approach to equality, diversity, inclusion, and accessibility across the business and platform.
