During the application process, your information is held and processed within our internal human resources system. The information you submit is held securely and only accessed by those people involved in the recruitment process.
What information do we collect about you?
We collect information from you when you apply for employment at the trust. Once you are employed, the information we collected at application is updated where necessary during the employment process. The information we collect includes your name, address, contact details, date of birth, employment history and education. We will also take your photograph for security purposes, and will keep a record of emergency contact details. During your employment with us, we will record your financial details to enable us to pay your salary.
How will we use information about you?
We will use the information you provide at application to keep you updated on the progress of your application. If you enter into a contract of employment with us, the information provided will be used for administrative purposes such as corresponding with you and paying your salary.
During your time with us, new information about you will be created in your employment records, for example, absence information, maternity or paternity information and performance development reviews.

This information is used to ensure that we meet our obligations under the Equality Duty and provide support to you as required during your employment at the college.

Under data protection legislation, explicit consent must be received to process special categories of data, including ethnicity and health needs, and you will be requested to consent to this processing during the application process. If you do not do so, we may be unable to offer you a contract of employment and may withdraw any offer already made. If you would like to discuss this further, please do not hesitate to contact us.
