Equal Opportunities Questionnaire 2023

As Somerset House Trust strives to be an inclusive organisation, we want to meet the aims and commitments set out in our Diversity Action Plan.

We are committed to equal opportunities in our recruitment process and in order to find out how well we are doing with this we need to collect monitoring data. This monitoring form is voluntary but the information we collect here is very useful to us as it helps us to make sure that we are an inclusive employer and to find out if our workforce is diverse. Your answers are strictly confidential and will be separated from your application upon receipt. It will NOT play any part in the recruitment process or be shared with anyone outside the HR department.
