Equal Employment Opportunity Employer

At the Witte Museum, we believe that a person should only be held accountable for those failings and rewarded for only those achievements for which he/she is personally responsible. The Museum is firmly committed to treating employees and applicants for employment according to their experience, talent, and qualifications for the job, without regard to their race, religion, color, national origin, sex, age, or disability (if otherwise qualified to do the job). Our policy in this regard covers all employment decisions, including recruitment, hiring, placement, promotions, transfers, layoffs or terminations, rates of pay, employee benefits, and selection for training.

This policy regarding equal treatment regardless of race, religion, color, national origin, sex, age or disability applies to prohibit any type of harassment or retaliation for any type of activity protected by appropriate state or federal anti-discrimination laws. Accordingly, the Museum strictly prohibits any employee from harassing another employee on the basis of their race, religion, color, national origin, sex, age or disability; and the Museum, likewise, strictly prohibits any type of retaliation for any employee engaging in any activity protected by the appropriate federal or state anti-discrimination laws.

Further, we resolve to respect the Right-to-Work Laws of Texas, our home state, and will carefully protect each person¹s right to enjoy all the privileges of employment without regard to his or her membership or non-membership in any employee organization or association.
