Recruitment will follow our safer recruitment policy which requires a DBS check and references

The new positive action legal provisions mean that it is not unlawful to recruit or promote a candidate who is of equal merit to another candidate, if the chair of the recruitment panel reasonably thinks the candidate has a protected characteristic that is underrepresented in the workforce; or that people with that characteristic suffer a disadvantage connected to that characteristic.

Manchester Settlement is currently underrepresented by staff who are:-
• Men
• Disabled
• Non White British
• LGBTQ+

Manchester Settlement operates robust safer recruitment procedures. All applicants offered positions will be subject to checks including enhanced DBS checks and reference checks
