I've recently been considering a change of employer as a qualified train driver and one thing which always appears as part of the application process is an equal opportunities questionnaire. Personally, I tend not to fill them in these days because I don't see what relevance they have to my ability to do the job, is this likely to lead to my application being disregarded/given a lower score?
On one hand I know that HR are not supposed to discriminate based on the information which is/isn't provided in the questionnaire, however there's plenty of anecdotal evidence I've heard in the depot messrooms from people who think that isn't strictly the case. Can I please have opinions on this particular dilemma?
