Equal opportunities monitoring
The Old Oak and Park Royal Development Corporation are committed to providing equal opportunities for all, irrespective of race, age, disability, gender, marital status, religion, sexual orientation and transgender.
As part of the application process, we ask candidates to complete equal opportunities monitoring information. This will help us to monitor selection decisions to assess whether equality of opportunity is being achieved and identify where we can improve in this area. The information on the form will be treated as confidential and used for statistical purposes only. The form will not be treated as part of your application.
Guaranteed Interview Scheme
The OPDC is a committed Disability Confident employer and as such, operates a Guaranteed Interview Scheme (GIS) for candidates with a disability. We are committed to interviewing all applicants with a disability who provide evidence of meeting the minimum requirements necessary for the post, as set out in this applicant pack.
To be eligible, your disability must be within the definition laid down in the Equality Act 2010. A disabled person is defined by the Equality Act 2010 as someone who has a physical or mental impairment, which has a substantial and long-term adverse effect on their ability to perform normal day-to-day activities. For the purposes of this policy, these words have the following meanings:
- ‘substantial’ means more than minor or trivial.
- ‘long-term’ means that the effect of the impairment has lasted, or is likely to last, 12 months (there are special rules covering recurring or fluctuating conditions)
- ‘normal day-to-day activities’ include everyday things like eating, washing, walking and going shopping.
Should you consider yourself eligible to apply for this post under the Disability Confident Scheme, please complete the this form here and upload together with your CV and Suitability Statement.
If you do not receive acknowledgement of your application within 48 hours, or require any reasonable adjustments in order to support you in submitting your application, please contact gemma.robertson@miles-advisory.com (please note, however, that applications will not be accepted via e-mail).
