Employment and equal opportunities

Uttlesford District Council aims to attract and employ a diverse workforce. No job applicant, employee, volunteer, agency worker, contractor or Member will be discriminated against unlawfully.

Uttlesford District Council seeks to remove barriers people can experience in employment - we understand that creating equality of opportunity is about individuals and is not the same as treating everyone identically. For example, we make adjustments for disabled job applicants and employees wherever reasonable to do so.
