Our Policy
NHSGGC values the diversity in its workforce and as a double tick, positive about disability employer, encourages applications from candidates with disabilities. NHSGGC recognises that disabilities can take many forms and that some employees with a disability can face challenges in the workplace.
Under the double tick standard the Health Board guarantees to interview all applicants with a disability who meet the minimum criteria for a job vacancy and consider them on their abilities.
NHSGGC also commits to employing the best candidates for roles, regardless of their personal make-up and commits to supporting employees to remain in their jobs if they develop a disability, as far as is reasonably practical.
