When you apply for a job with us we will ask some extra questions about you. This includes a couple of questions about your ethnicity, sexual orientation, disability status, trans status and household income. This information will only be seen by staff in our People & Culture team, and only in an anonymised format. It will be seen separately from your application, and will not be used to identify you. It will not be used to inform the interviewing or shortlisting process.
The form will help us to make sure we’re as inclusive as possible. Here’s why:

We ask questions to collect overall statistical information – not to pinpoint individuals. It helps us understand the different groups of people who work here, and what their experience of Student Hubs is. We want to make sure that everyone feels our workplace is a safe and inclusive place that treats them fairly and meets their needs.

We want to make Student Hubs as inclusive as possible for everyone who works here, regardless of their sexual orientation, ethnicity, trans status, gender, disability or any other protected characteristics. By learning more about the people who work here, we can take steps to ensure an environment where everyone is able to thrive.

We follow strict laws and internal practices to make sure your information is stored safely and responsibly. Your answers are confidential and will never be used in a way that will identify you. We’ll always show you how we use the information you give us to improve Student Hubs. Learn more in our Privacy Notice: https://www.studenthubs.org/policies/privacy
