Redundancy selection criteria Advice help!

[Brighteyes27]

My job post is at risk and have been put in a selection to pool for my own job (as there are more of us than they want). We were expecting to go to competitive interview as has happened on other occasions. But have just found out due to the scale of the reorganisation this is not happening and selection will take place by way of a written/timed assessment/task. No details yet but any tips or advice please?
I think the idea is for all of us that are affected to sit the same task at the same time but I have heard on the grape vine that two members of staff have unseen disabilities so they will be receiving extra time? I am all for fair play but surely this is unfair. Neither of these employees has obvious (difficulties writing day to day which is part of our job although less and less as most things on computer and I have seen them both taking copious amounts of notes at meetings? Surely this is unfair or are they also expected to do 25% less work if they get the job? This will be really unfair on whoever is left who will be expected to do the same work with less staff (whatever management day now). Is this fair or should I raise it?

Speak to your union, but although it's probably what you want to hear, it's probably a reasonable adjustment.

Sorry you are having a horrible time

Thanks TyneTeas I know it just seems unfair on the rest of us. One of them hasn't been in our department long and from what I gather anyone who knows her says wherever she has worked she always managed to avoid doing what everyone else had to do and always got unions involved and rode roughshod over everyone to ensure she got her own way.
I have contacted the Union will see them later this week.

My dd is dyslexic - she reads constantly and is very bright. Her dyslexia means she has to work harder than her contemporaries.

Do raise the fact that someone with "unseen disabilities" is being given a head start in the redundancy race.

It's quite depressing that this is the sort of prejudice she will face when she enters the workplace.

Though I was saying it wasn't what you probably wanted to hear I wasn't saying it was actually unfair (despite missing a not out)

And that is was probably a reasonable adjustment

The Original LEM my daughter also has dyslexia and also works extremely hard with her written work just to keep up. She is bright but the concentration with her written work takes its toll.
No at least one of the disabilities here is not dyslexia dyscalculia or dysgraphia it is arthritis but as said she managed to take copious, legible notes in meetings (more than keeping up) and far more than the rest of us so in this case in a written assessment it seems she may have an unfair advantage.
My original question was about tips and advice to help me do well in the written test as the Ines with the lowest score will be made redundant.
