Records Management Officer

Request

I would like information as to how it has been determined that for roles such as Records Management Officer a full driving licence is necessary.

1. Do these roles include driving as part of the role? If not, has it been considered that this is discriminatory against those with disabilities that leave them unable to drive.

2. Have the HR and Legal Departments authorised this requirement after considering the duties for making reasonable adjustments under the Equality Act 2010? If so, please provide the rationale behind this and any Equality Impact Assessments undertaken.

Decision

1. The role of Records Management Officer does require the postholder to be able to visit different sites across Lincolnshire.

The Job Description does refer to ‘Full driver’s licence and access to a vehicle or the ability to transport yourself to visit sites across the county’.

2. N/a
