Equality Act 2010 and Positive Action
Under the Equality Act 2010 employers can take positive action to help disadvantaged or underrepresented groups—such as people over 50, disabled individuals or ethnic minorities—provided the action is proportionate.
It aims to overcome disadvantage, meet different needs or encourage participation. It does not amount to positive discrimination such as automatically selecting someone solely based on a protected characteristic.
Therefore we offer all eligible candidates from all priority groups who successfully complete stages 1 and 2 of the recruitment process a work trail prior to interview. If this is of interest please email us.
