| Guidance Notes | ||
| You may find it easier to print out this guidance sheet and a blank
application form before beginning to complete your application form on-line, as it will probably be
beneficial to gather the information required prior to completing the form. Forms submitted electronically will obviously not carry your signature. If you are asked to attend for interview you will be required to sign a copy of your submitted form. It will be assumed that all information you have provided on your application form is correct at the time of submission. If you are able to print a copy of your completed form then please do this for reference purposes. If you are required to provide additional documentation at your interview e.g. evidence of qualifications, please ensure you have these to hand before the interview date. |

| Using the e-forms system | ||
|
The form content has been divided among a number of pages for ease of viewing. You
move from one page to the next by clicking the 'Next' or 'Previous' button if you wish to go
back. You may be prevented from doing this if you have not completed parts of the form on a panel
that are required to be completed. An indication of this is given on the form. This will also
happen if the data you enter is not recognised as being valid e.g. an email address. As you move from one page to the next, your progress is indicated by small numbered buttons beneath the navigation buttons. If you wish to navigate to a particular page directly that you have already visited, click the numbered button. Invalid entries on a page may prevent navigation e.g. missing fields. When you have reached the end of the form (the last main page) you will find a small print icon in the bottom right-hand corner of the page. Clicking this will pop-up a printable version of your form. You may make changes to your form but you must return to this last page to get a printable version. When you are ready to submit your form click the 'Submit' button. It is VERY IMPORTANT that you check your form for content before submitting it as you will not be able to return and edit it again after submission. The 'Clear All' link at the bottom left-hand corner of your form will clear ALL content from ALL pages. If you wish to view this help on-line then click the help icon button in the bottom left-hand corner. |

| ISLE OF WIGHT COUNCIL EQUAL OPPORTUNITIES POLICY STATEMENT |
| The Isle of Wight Council recognises and accepts its responsibility to ensure
that it does not discriminate unlawfully in the course of employment or service delivery on such
grounds as a person's gender, sexual orientation, disability, marital status, race or colour. Other types of discrimination, whilst not being unlawful, are equally unacceptable, these include such issues as unfair discrimination on the grounds of age, religion, and responsibility for dependants. This policy seeks to ensure equality of opportunity for employment and advancement so that all employees/job applicants are recruited, trained and promoted solely on the basis of merit and justifiable job requirements. The policy embraces the areas of advertising, recruitment and selection, terms on which employment is offered, job allocation, promotion, training, discipline and grievance issues and all other aspects of day to day employment. Each manager and supervisor is responsible for applying this policy with overall responsibility for ensuring that it is fully observed within each department being vested in Directors. The Head of Human Resources is responsible for central coordination and monitoring of the policy, advice and review. |
||
| MONITORING OF JOB APPLICANTS | ||
| IN ORDER TO MEASURE THE EFFECTIVENESS OF ITS EQUAL OPPORTUNITIES POLICY, THE COUNCIL NEEDS TO CARRY OUT DETAILED MONITORING OF THE RECRUITMENT AND SELECTION PROCESS. YOU ARE THEREFORE ASKED TO COMPLETE ALL QUESTIONS. THIS WILL ENABLE US TO COLLATE THE INFORMATION REQUIRED HELPING US TO SEE WHETHER WE ARE RECEIVING APPLICATIONS FROM ALL SECTORS OF THE COMMUNITY AND WILL ALSO ASSIST US IN CHECKING THAT CANDIDATES RECEIVE FAIR AND EQUAL TREATMENT. | ||
