It is no longer necessary for you or members to complete the equality monitoring questionnaire. The standalone form has been removed from the website but it will still be available within the ‘consideration of entitlement to ill health retirement benefits’ (AW33E) form and mentioned in the ‘retirement benefits claim form’ (AW8). You can continue to use any stock you have of these forms and they will be updated for the next print run.
The equality monitoring questionnaire may also be referenced in other forms but these references will be removed on their next review. Even if the form references the questionnaire, it does not have to be completed.
