Tá Meas Againn ar ár bhFoireann – Cúis Cheiliúrtha a nIndibhidiúlacht
In Iarnród Éireann Irish Rail táimid tiomanta d’éagsúlacht agus d’ionchuimsitheacht a áireamh i ngach rud a dhéanaimid. Tosaíonn sé seo leis an mbealach a bhfuil daoine á n-earcú san eagraíocht againn. Cinntímid go bhfuil próisis mhealltacha agus roghnúcháin deartha ar bhealach a thugann tús áite do chomhdheis.
Tá sé tábhachtach go mbeadh daoine den tuairim gur féidir leo oibriú inár n-eagraíocht agus déanaimid tréaniarracht timpeallacht a chruthú a chiallaíonn go dtugtar cothrom na féinne do gach duine.
