The Council is committed to meeting the needs and aspirations of Rotherham Boroughs diverse communities and aims to have a workforce which reflects this diversity.
We recognise the value of actively seeking to encourage a diverse workforce and we work to make sure that our recruitment process and employment opportunities are accessible and welcoming to everyone. We also make reasonable adjustments to a job or workplace so that disabled workers can access jobs, progress their career and fulfil their potential at work.
The Council’s Corporate Equality Strategy and Action Plan sets out our commitment.

Challenging Discrimination
The Council has a legal responsibility to ensure no discrimination takes place and that equality of opportunity is an integral part of the recruitment process. We are committed to managing diversity during recruitment so there are no unnecessary barriers to any appropriately skilled person applying for a position.
That includes making sure there is no discrimination on the grounds of disability, gender, marital status, age, race, religion, or sexuality.
