As a result of the high number of applications for posts being received at present, your application will not be acknowledged unless you enclose a stamped self-addressed envelope.

| Recruitment Complaints Procedure |
The Council has a Code of Practice on Recruitment and Selection to make sure that good practice is followed throughout the recruitment process. Occasionally, however, candidates may consider that their application has not been dealt with fairly and that the standards and values in the Code have not been followed. All candidates can ask for feedback about any decision and if the explanation for non-selection does not satisfy you, then the Council's Recruitment Complaints Procedure can be used.
The complaint should be made in writing to the:
Recruitment Unit
1st Floor
High Street Buildings
High Street
Huddersfield
HD1 2NQ
within 10 working days of receiving your feedback.
A copy of this Procedure can be obtained from the Council's Recruitment Unit, telephone (01484) 225098/225105.
