Employees with a disability

If you are a redeployee with a disability and would like additional support to access this programme, or if you have a concern about a member of your team who may need support to access the programme, please contact a Redeployment Advisor via staff.redeployment@surreycc.gov.uk.

Hiring Manager's responsibilities

When shortlisting applications, managers will ensure the following with regard to employees with a disability:

  • A guaranteed interview to an employee with a disability who meets the minimum criteria
  • Consideration and application of reasonable adjustments to the selection process
  • Consideration and application of reasonable adjustments to enable the applicant to undertake the new role effectively
  • Consideration and application of reasonable adjustments to the trial period to ensure the suitability of the role is appropriately considered.

If the employee is not selected for interview, or appointed, we recommend that they contact the hiring manager to obtain feedback. If it would be helpful, the employee can meet with a redeployment advisor to discuss the feedback and how it can be used to improve future applications or interview performance.
