The Disability Confident approach has been incorporated into the Tribepad ATS by enabling the option to ask candidates at the Registration stage, whether they have a disability.
If the candidate answers ‘yes’ they will be flagged with our Disability Confident symbol and will appear at the top of the candidate list against the role they have applied for.
The example below shows the question being asked during the Candidate Registration process.
The next example shows an application with the Disability symbol clearly visible.
The icon will only be visible to those users that have the permission enabled.
Every business has a different internal recruitment process however one way that you may like to utilise this function is by first identifying those candidates that have met your initial minimum role requirements and then ensuring that you guarantee an interview to those candidates that have the disability symbol assigned to their profile.
There are many positive reasons for choosing to become a Disability Confident employer it shows that you are ready to engage and embrace a diverse set of potential employees’. It also shows that you are committed to following a fair recruitment process whilst helping to break down some of the barriers that those with a disability may experience when trying to secure a job.
The Tribepad platform has been independently tested for user accessibility by a third party and is compliant with WCAG/AAA. Tribepad has been endorsed by Sheffield Royal Society for the Blind who confirmed it was the simplest job application process they had ever used. Tribepad has also passed BBC’s own stricter accessibility compliance tests.
