Equalities Monitoring Form

akt is committed to improving the diversity of its workforce so that it better reflects the diverse community it serves. To help us achieve this, we would appreciate it if you could provide us with some information which will be captured and stored anonymously and used only for the purpose of equalities monitoring (and applying our guaranteed interview scheme detailed below) during the recruitment process. All offers of employment will be made strictly on merit and related to the requirements of the job. This form will be separated from the application form on receipt and those involved in the selection process will not have access to it.

We understand that it’s impossible to reduce the rich complexity of our backgrounds and identities into a few boxes, but please choose the options you identify with most closely. If you're uncomfortable sharing, please choose "Prefer not to say".

What is your gender identity?

Do you have any additional gender identities? (If the answer is no, please skip this question)

Is your gender different or has more components to the one assumed at birth?

What is your age range?

What is your nationality?

What is your ethnicity? (Please choose the most appropriate option to indicate your cultural background)

Other (please specify)

Do you identify as Black, Brown or a Person of Colour? (We ask this question for the purpose of our Guaranteed Interview Scheme)

Guaranteed Interview Scheme

We recognise that applicants from Black, Brown and People of Colour backgrounds may experience additional barriers when applying for a new role and we are taking positive action to address under representation within our organisation.

We therefore operate a guaranteed interview scheme for applicants who are from Black, Brown and People of colour backgrounds who wish to be considered in line with this scheme and who meet the minimum criteria for the role.

Do you wish to apply under akt's guaranteed interview scheme for Black, Brown and People of Color applicants?

What is your religion or belief?

Other (please specify)

If you have a medical condition, the Equality Act 2010 requires employers to make reasonable adjustments to the job content or working environment. To achieve this, we need to know whether you are covered. Definition of Disability: “A physical or mental impairment which has a substantial and long-term effect on a person’s ability to carry out normal day-to-day activities in a non-work environment.”

Do you consider yourself to have a disability as defined in the Equality Act 2010?

Guaranteed Interview Scheme

akt recognises that organisations have a positive duty to make reasonable adjustments to compensate for disadvantages relating to disability and therefore commits to a guaranteed interview scheme for applicants with disabilities who wish to be considered in line with this scheme and who meet the minimum criteria for the role.

In situations where a large volume of applicants who meet the scheme criteria are received and it is not practicable to interview them all, an agreed number of candidates will be selected for the shortlist in order of their shortlisting scores.

Do you wish to apply under akt's guaranteed interview scheme for applicants with disabilities?

Yes No

Anything else? Please feel free to tell us anything more about your background and identity, as we know tick-boxes may not express the full story.

What is your sexual orientation? (As defined in the Equality Act 2010)

Other (please specify)

There are 6 million carers in the United Kingdom and nearly one in eight workers are carers. With an ageing population and an expected increase of 60% of carers in the next 30 years, we would like to monitor the number of people with caring responsibilities.

Do you have caring responsibilities?
