Equality and Diversity Monitoring Survey - Mentoring Programme

By filling out this survey, you’re helping us to ensure that our recruitment processes remain fair and that we continue to attract diverse and talented candidates.

The information you provide will only be used for statistical purposes. It won’t be used as part of the selection process or be seen by the interview panel, and we’ll never publish information that could identify you.

Why do your insights matter?

The more we understand about our sector, the better we can make it. The insights you provide allow us to continuously develop our approach to EDI, so we can be as inclusive and effective as possible. Some examples are below:

Disability Confident Scheme
We’re proud to be part of the Disability Confident scheme. This means we actively take steps to create a more inclusive workplace for our staff, like guaranteeing interviews for internal applicants with a disability or health condition who meet the minimum criteria for the role.

Gender Identity and Pronouns
You now have the option to indicate your preferred pronouns during registration, if you wish to do so. This is so our team can address you in a way that feels right for you.

You only need to complete this survey once. If there’s anything you’d rather not answer, simply select "prefer not to answer".

As an incentive Charity People will make a donation to Compass - a charity that provides health and wellbeing services for children, young people and their families.
