FE College Scenario: A confidential monitoring form is a part of an online job application form. There are 'required' fields for Gender, Sexual Orientation and Ethnic Group. Which, if any, of these categories should either be optional, or should at least have a 'prefer not to say' option? Any help appreciated.
