Application Workflow - Add Compliance Questions

The Compliance Questions action item enables administrators to add compliance questions to the section. This action item can only be used once within a section.

The questions that appear in the Compliance Questions section are determined by the Compliance Enablement Preferences settings for the Location organizational unit (OU) in which the requisition is posted. Depending on the preferences set for the Location OU in which the requisition is posted, the following compliance questions may appear if the Compliance Questions section is included in the application workflow template:

  • Disability
  • Ethnicity
  • Gender
  • Race
  • Veteran Status
  • Voluntary Self-Identification of Disability

The questions always appear in the above order.

Note: If compliance questions are included on an application workflow template but the requisition's Location OU does not have compliance questions configured in Compliance Enablement Preferences, then the compliance questions section is skipped during the application process.

To create an application workflow template, go to Admin > Tools > Recruit > Application Workflow Templates. Then click Create Template.

To help collect this information, many organizations allow the job applicant to enter the information when applying for a job. These questions are always optional for job applicants.
