What is the Disability Symbol
Forth Valley College has been awarded the Positive About Disabled People “Two Ticks” symbol in recognition of our commitments to ensure that disabled people are supported by employers and treated fairly at every stage of their selection and employment.
This symbol means that Forth Valley College will take action on the following five commitments:
- To guarantee an interview to all applicants with a disability - provided they meet the minimum qualifying criteria for the particular vacancy and to consider them on their abilities.
- To consult with disabled employees on an annual basis, to ensure they can develop and use their abilities at work
- To make every effort when employees become disabled to retain them in employment.
- To take action to ensure that all employees develop the appropriate level of disability awareness needed to make these commitments work.
- To review these commitments annually to check what has been achieved, plan ways to improve and to advise employees about progress and future plans.
In order for you to benefit from our commitments you should indicate that you have a disability under the relevant section of the application form and let us know if you have any special requirements for interview.
