CCC Recruitment

No job applicant receives less favorable treatment on any of the grounds mentioned above, or is disadvantaged by conditions that are not essential for carrying out the job.

To ensure that such direct or indirect discrimination is not occurring:

Recruitment advertising and selection criteria for each post will be monitored to ensure that they do not unfairly discriminate against any racial, religious, gender, disability, lifestyle or age group.

Job qualifications or requirements which would have the effect of inhibiting applications from members of one or more of these groups will not be demanded or imposed except where they are justifiable in terms of the job to be done.

Candidates selected for interview will be asked in advance whether they have any special needs that the company should take into consideration or cater for, so as to equalize all candidates’ chances at interview as far as possible.

All those handling job applications and conducting interviews, appraisals and pay, training and promotion reviews will be aware of the principles of the Sex Discrimination Act, the Race Relations Act, the Disability Discrimination Act, the Employment Equality (Age) Regulations and other relevant legislation

Employee appraisals, pay reviews, training opportunities and promotion will be

based solely on the employee’s merits, abilities and performance.

Specialist recruitment consultants will be advised of CCC’s recruitment policy and third party advice will be sought to ensure that this policy is implemented as best practice.

This policy will be monitored and reviewed annually.
