We are committed to the employment and career development of disabled people.
To demonstrate our commitment, we use the Two Ticks disability symbol which is awarded by the Employment Service.
As a symbol user, we guarantee:
-
to interview to anyone with a disability whose application meets the minimum criteria for the post, and consider them on their ability;
-
to ensure there is a mechanism in place to discuss with disabled employees what can be done to ensure they can develop and use their abilities;
-
to make every effort if employees become disabled to make sure they stay in employment;
-
to take action to ensure all employees develop the appropriate level of disability awareness needed to make the commitments work;
-
to review each year the five commitments and what has been achieved to plan ways to improve on them and to let employees and the job centre know about progress and future plan.
