This Policy has been prepared keeping in mind the provisions of the Rights of Persons with Disabilities Act, 2016 and the Transgender Persons (Protection of Rights) Act, 2019 (“TP Act”) and the respective rules made thereunder.

This Policy applies to all current and prospective employees of the Company, as well as contractors and visitors, who could be vulnerable to discriminatory treatment due to certain individual characteristics.

Candidates for employment, promotion or transfer will be assessed objectively against the requirements for the job and on merit.
Thrive will strictly refrain from demonstrating bias or prejudice towards individual differences. People will be given the chance to work in a discrimination-free environment which will help them feel that their worth and rights are respected.
Further, Thrive shall not discriminate against a Transgender Person in any matter related to employment, including but not limited to hiring, promotions, etc.
