Applied :P

[Cixso]

Guys, please...

I want to take this seriously, stop asking me over MSN to hire you because I love you and your my world etc. Just do the applications properly.

Just because most guys on this forum are my friends doesn't mean I want to hire you and give you a foot massage.

I don't mean to sound cruel but come on. :P Understand what I'm saying... :P

(This wasn't aimed at anybody in particular by the way, just too many people said the same thing "hire me because you love me")

[Cixso]

This is just bloody stupid.

I have never got such crap applications in my life. Most are 2 lines long, 4 of them say "I love you" in them, most of them are typed lyk dis n av no id3a wat der sayin and 2 people posted with the incorrect subject!

Most of you who applied are my friends, but jesus christ man!

Applications are closed. I'll advertise somewhere else.

There where 2 applications who where correctly written out. Jordan was one of them, so thank you.

5 hours a day? Some people actually do have lifes..

[crans]

whats your company reg number?

[timROGERS]

I was planning to apply, until I saw that you were asking about disabilities. It seems pretty disgusting to me that you would ask for that information, as it has no bearing on someone's ability to do a job such as this one. In fact, the Disability Discrimination Act states that you must not ask for such information unless it has a bearing on the job.

[Cixso]

I may shorten it, as it does seem rather bazaar.

We are not registered.

As the employer, I require this information incase the user needs help or can only work a certain amount of time. How is that disgusting?

[Jordan,]

O I did it right i thought you wanted it in paragraphs lol

[Aflux]

In addition to Tim's post;

You are basically failing the DDA 1995 part 4.1.a/b/c which could see your company shut down with immediate effect. If the employee has any special requests or needs then they should tell you - it's not up to you whether to offer them less hours as this is also failing the DDA 1995 4.2.d.

Also, you should not inquire about the gender either until you are going to offer the position to the persons as this you are subject to failing the SDA 1975.

I'll look up on it, Link please?

As a registered company, you should have immediate access [i.e - printed and documented] versions of all acts that apply to you, the employer and the employees as reference regarding situations such as these. Failure to do so could again, see you shut down with immediate effect.

Also, link please?

[loserWILL]

I was looking forward to applying.

I do agree, asking someone for their disabilities is a little awkward. If they feel they can't work to the specified time because of a disability, they will tell you. Otherwise you don't need to know.

[Lycan]

You guys ever consider that in the case of a condition such as phyiscal handicap like unable to walk breaks during the work hours might be extended... along with other conditions such as diabetes
You could even push to if hes hiring someone who has a site disability, all there work would be sent to them in a larger font or offered to them

stop trying to make it sound like hes wanting to get rid of anyone who could be remotely called disabled when instead hes trying to find out information on applicants which could be helpful to increase there happiness in employment like any good employer should do.

of course you don't have to tell him, but items you feel could be a trouble in the workplace that he could help with should be noted.

If the user does not wish to state such information then that is the users choice.

About this gender issue, if that statement what you say is true, why, upon job applications, you are required to state your gender, DOB, address, email address if any, and disabilities?

[Aflux]

Keep in mind there is no contract with the user and the employer.

Also, link please?
I'm talking about the employer and the employee, not the employer and the user.

Like I said - it's not up to me to provide a link to an act of which you should know head and tail of because you are an employer - it's up to you to find the DDA, not me.

Untrue. If the applicant has a disability that could affect their work rate or hours then it's up to the applicant to tell the employer on the application form under the 'Other Information' box [which should be added]. If the employer asks the applicant whether they have any disabilities - this is classed as discrimination as this is part of the application which considers whether the applicant gets the job.

Gender is just for profile purposes, if on file you have two Sams and you address the female sam "dear sir" and the male sam "Dear Madam" ... Come on guys stop making mountains out of molehills

Note sarcasm.

As I said, the statement above, why do companies ask for details?

If the employer asks the applicant whether they have any disabilities - this is classed as discrimination as this is part of the application which considers whether the applicant gets the job.Untrue, in the eyes of the law you should be aware of disabilities within your company. Go outside, find a couple of job applications, and look at the information on it.


If the employer asks the applicant whether they have any disabilities - this is classed as discrimination as this is part of the application which considers whether the applicant gets the job.Thats a load of bull.


I am currently looking for a job, however it would have to be a paid position.

Gender is a tricky issue as it's NEEDED to know for documentation and it's on your passport/driving license etc as it's classed as one of the 'big four' or whatever of things you need to know as an employer - it's only when employees get chosen out of gender it becomes more of an issue although you should be taking it all into consideration.

In real life, in a interview wouldn't you know if their a girl or a boy or not anyways?

We are not talking about an interview here. :P

[Zroc]

Is there anyway you can give support staff a weekly or monthly fixed wage?

[Lycan]

Obviously.

And you'd write it down..... which becomes part of their staff profile

so people who don't know them , know what to address them as...

I mean come on its basicly the same as asking for a title

Serriously i never new how stupid this forum was before when it came to business application and e-commerce, you've fallen to a new low in my books

It's a monthly fixed wage. :)

[Zroc]

[Jordan,]

At least we can spell ;)

I was backing up Tim's post about the DDA which was my main point and I was touching the circumference of the SDA which could come into play [never said it would, or had] - it's just better to ask them their gender when they are employees.

I'm sorry was that a jab at my spelling? .... any mistake is normally a typo, get off your highhorse you make them too.

You could ask for their gender when you hire them but simpling adding a tick box to a form is alot easier, i take it common sense has taken a blow in your world then?

[Zroc]

Sar, what is the monthly wage. I am seriously considering working for you.

[Cixso]

Sar, what is the monthly wage. I am seriously considering working for you.

I'll put all the information online in a form with TICKY gender boxes.

I'll reply when it is completed. :) Nice to see you have shown interest.

Okay, when you fail to meet the standards of the DDA, i.e - now, you will face the consequences in all honest.

Idiocy has no place in legislations.

[Zroc]

Thanks for that. Very very interested in this position. I have worked for SpeedHosting as a support staff before, however now looking for a paid position ;)

Any chance pay could be weekly or bi-weekly?

[Pat McGroin]

I never knew how many idiots were on this forum, seriously. You go out and get job applications and I bet you £10 that 90% of applications ask about gender and disabilities. It's not discrimination at all. You fools.

as i said before look on applications for whsmits woolys they all have it on

[Aflux]

In all honesty, I can agree with you that I do have a certain idiocy in me - but in the end; doesn't everyone?

Yes, and we know where it lies.

[Pat McGroin]

Aflux, if it is discrimination then can you find me 5 job applications that don't mention gender or disabilities?

[Independent]

Wait a second, I remember someone reporting a ripped habbositepanel, and they tottaly edited the copyright, and you decided to be rude and not bother even removing it.

The owner of habbositepanel, did report it... but yeah your staff/you seem pretty stuck up, I reccomend you try hiring some good staff?
