About this template

What is this template?

This is a voluntary demographic data collection instrument used to monitor organisational diversity. It is not an application form or a contract of employment and specifically states that provided data will not be linked to job applications. It contains specific categories for age, disability, ethnicity, religion, sex, gender reassignment, and sexual orientation.

When should you use it?

Use this form when inviting candidates for interview or conducting an annual workforce audit to assess progress against an equality policy. Use a reasonable adjustment request form instead if an individual requires specific physical or procedural changes to their working environment.

Who it's for

  • a UK employer tracking diversity data for job applicants during a recruitment process
  • an organisation monitoring the demographic composition of its existing workforce
  • a data controller needing an Equality Act 2010 compliant monitoring questionnaire

It depends on the situation. Templates work well for routine business agreements. For anything involving significant money, complex IP, employment, or areas you're unsure about, it's worth getting professional advice before you sign. GitLaw provides templates and tools, not legal advice.

Open any template in GitLaw and describe the change you want in the chat — 'make clause 4 mutual' or 'add a 30-day notice period', for example. GitLaw drafts the revised language and shows it as a suggested edit. You accept, reject, or keep editing from there.
