Positive Action for a Diverse Workforce
At the English Folk Dance and Song Society we strive to be an Equal Opportunities employer and to ensure that no person is unfairly discriminated against in our recruitment and selection policies and procedures. We are committed to diversifying our workforce to better represent society and we follow guidance on positive action in recruitment from the Equality and Human Rights Commission and the Equality Act 2010.
We particularly welcome applicants from minoritised ethnicities, and those who are disabled, as these are under-represented in our organisation and the wider folk music workforce.
All disabled applicants who fulfil the Person Specification and Qualities criteria will be called for an interview. Please make clear in your application if you consider yourself disabled. (You may find it helpful to refer to the definition at gov.uk/definition-of-disability-under-equality-act-2010.)
Please see Equity, Diversity, and Inclusion to learn more about our commitments and actions to diversifying our work and staff.
