Make it your business

Welcoming diversity isn’t just about opening your doors. It’s about thinking and acting inclusively, beyond compliance. Best practice around disability has overtaken legal compliance. Forward-looking organisations, not governments, now drive the conversation, because inclusion is an imperative, not a choice. Add your voice, your commitment, your values, your weight.

Most Frequently Asked Questions

What if I don’t know that my employee has a disability?

You must provide an employee with adjustments if you know, or should reasonably know, that they have a disability. We give detailed guidance for specific cases.

Can I ask questions about a candidate’s disability during the recruitment process?

No. The Equality Act 2010 contains a ban on asking disability or health related questions during the recruitment process, and you will be at risk of a claim for discrimination should you do so. There are some very limited exceptions to this, including the right to ask if a person requires adjustments during the recruitment process. Please contact us if you have particular queries in this respect.

What duties does my organisation have?

Section 20 of the Equality Act 2010 imposes a duty upon an employer to make reasonable adjustments, if the physical features of the work premises or the working arrangements, are the prohibiting factor to a disabled person gaining or staying in employment.

We want to attract more neurodivergent and disabled talent. Can you help?

Yes. We can directly help you to attract neurodivergent and disabled students and graduates, through our partnership programmes. Our consultancy services also enable you to reach a broader pool of talent for other hires, by supporting you to build genuinely inclusive practices, and messaging your commitment. Contact us for more details.

How do we become a disability-inclusive employer?

To be a Next Generation Inclusive Employer, put best practice at the heart of your business culture. Adopt equitable and compliant recruitment and workplace processes, educate your team, message your intention, and measure your successes. Contact us to find out more.

We want to know what adjustments we should be making to support a disabled employee. Can you help?

Yes, we can work with the employee and with you to understand the effects of their disability in the workplace, to determine what adjustments they require. We also provide specific training to their team-members and managers, as well as ongoing support.
