In addition to the checks regarding references and eligibility to work in the UK, your appointment will be subject to medical and qualification checks.

At the interview stage, you will be required to complete a medical questionnaire. This information will only be used if you are successful after interview when it will be forwarded unopened to the County Occupational Physician to ensure that your health will not be affected by the role. This information will remain confidential between the Occupational Health Unit and yourself and will not be used in the process of selection.

You will also be asked, normally at the interview stage, to provide to Human Resources your original certificates of any necessary professional qualifications. Human Resources may also make a check with the relevant professional bodies regarding your qualifications.
