Do I need to disclose my disability when applying for jobs?
The short answer is no. You are not required to disclose your disability or long-term health condition when applying for jobs.
As a disabled-led social enterprise, we know how difficult the decision around disclosing your disability or health condition can be. It is a core part of Patchwork Hub's mission to create a future of work that improves this.
You might choose to disclose your disability within a recruitment process as part of requesting adjustments. This article on asking for reasonable adjustments at interview by Scope provides more information and advice.
If you have any concerns about requesting adjustments for jobs on our jobs board you can contact us. We are a small but dedicated team here to support you, and will get back to you as soon as we can.
