EQUAL OPPORTUNITIES MONITORING FORM CONFIDENTIAL EQUAL OPPORTUNITIES MONITORING FORM The Open University is an equal opportunities employer. We have an equal opportunities policy, the aim of which is to ensure that no job applicant receives less favourable treatment on irrelevant grounds (e.g. sex, race, colour, ethnic or national origins, age, disability, religious, sexual orientation or marital status), nor is disadvantaged by conditions or requirements which cannot be shown to be justified and relevant to the job. In order to ensure that this policy is carried out, it is necessary for us to have some means of monitoring our recruitment and selection activity. Only by such measures will we be able to identify potential sources of discrimination and take remedial action. For this reason alone we would be most grateful if you would answer the following questions. On receipt, the monitoring form will be separated from the application form and securely stored. It will be treated as strictly confidential and will be used for statistical monitoring only. To carry out this approach we need your assistance and would be grateful if you would provide the information requested; none of this information will be seen or used during the selection process.
