There is no legal requirement to record the date of birth and for the record this council is also considering removing reference to age in order to comply with the new legislation , kind regards, Susan -----Original Message----- From: [log in to unmask] [mailto:[log in to unmask]] On Behalf Of Sue Mann (JIC) Sent: 10 October 2006 16:00 To: [log in to unmask] Subject: [OCC-HEALTH] Date of birth Dear All, Can anyone tell me whether there is a legal requirement to put the date of birth of a client on all or any documentation, used in OH? Our HR department are considering withdrawing the DOB section on a job application form in light of the new laws on 'age discrimination'. Many thanks, Sue Mann Occupational Health Adviser. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Please remove this footer before replying.
