Guaranteed Interview Scheme for disabled applicants : British Coouncil

          Provision of this information is voluntary and will assist the Britsh Council in its commitment to a policy of equal opportunity and the development of positive policies to promote equal opportunity in employment.  We welcome applications from all sections of the community as we believe that a diverse workforce gives added depth to our work. 

          We aim to ensure that no job applicant or employee receives less favourable treatment on the basis of gender including transgender, marital status or civil partnership, sexual identity, religion and belief, political opinion, race, colour, nationality or ethnic origin, work pattern, age, disability or HIV/AIDS status, socio-economic background, spent convictions, trade union activity or membership, on the basis of having or not having dependants, or any other irrelevant grounds. 

          We monitor all stages of our recruitment and selection process to ensure there is no potential for unjustified discrimination on irrelevant grounds.  Our monitoring data is externally analysed each year, and recommendations are published and acted upon.

           All information supplied will be treated in strict confidence and no identifying details will be attached to it.  It will help us to monitor and evaluate the success and application of our equal opportunity policy and diversity strategy and to compile anonymised statistics which will be included within our formal reporting structures.
