Disability
Disability Discrimination Act 1995 and 2005
The Disability Discrimination Act protects disabled people. The DDA defines disability as a physical or mental impairment with long term, substantial effects on the ability to carry out normal day to day activities. This includes people with long-term health conditions. If you tell us that you have a disability, we can make reasonable adjustments to where you work, your work arrangements and at interview.
Employment Equality Regulations 2003
In order to comply with these regulations, St Luke’s is monitoring sexual orientation and religion/belief in applications.
Criminal Convictions
Rehabilitation of Offenders Act 1974 (Exceptions) Order 1975
In order to protect certain vulnerable groups within society, St Luke’s is exempt from the provisions of the Rehabilitation of Offenders Act 1974 by virtue of the Rehabilitation of Offenders Act 1974 (Exceptions) Order 1975.
Applicants are not entitled to withhold any information about convictions, cautions, warnings and reprimands which for other purposes are “spent” under the provisions of the Act. Any information provided will be confidential and will be considered only in relation to posts to which the Order applies. All applicants who are offered employment will be subject to a criminal records check from the Disclosure and Barring Service (DBS) before the appointment is confirmed. This will include details of cautions, reprimands or final warnings, as well as convictions. St Luke’s abides by the strict DBS Code of Practice with regard to disclosure whereby any conviction disclosure would not necessarily be a bar to employment but failure to reveal information relating to any convictions could lead to withdrawal of an offer of employment.
