Disability Confident
West Lancashire Borough Council is Disability Confident Committed
As a Disability Confident Committed Employer we have committed to:
• ensure our recruitment process is inclusive and accessible
• communicating and promoting vacancies
• offering an interview to disabled people who meet the minimum criteria for the job
• anticipating and providing reasonable adjustments as required
• supporting any existing employee who acquires a disability or long term health condition, enabling them to stay in work
• at least one activity that will make a difference for disabled people
Applications from disabled people are welcomed by the Council. A disability does not preclude you from full consideration for the job. The Council’s policy is to give all disabled people an interview if they satisfy the essential criteria for the job.
You should tell us whether or not you have a disability on the application form. All applicants should complete this question.
Please note that under the Equality Act 2010 you are considered disabled if you:
- have a physical or mental impairment;
- this impairment has an adverse effect which is substantial;
- the effect is long term (usually lasting for 12 months or more);
- the effect has an adverse effect on your ability to carry out normal day to day activities.
If you wish to discuss any adjustments, please contact the Human Resources team:
