– Inclusive Recruitment and retainment of staff.
– Inclusive recruitment minimises barriers and presents your organisation as inclusive to learning or neurodiversity needs and welcoming, enabling you to attract anyone with the right skill set, regardless of need.
– Reasonable Adjustments and Ongoing Support: Employers have a duty under the Equality Act 2010 to make ‘reasonable adjustments’ in the workplace where a person could otherwise be put at a substantial disadvantage compared with their colleagues.

On completion of the course we encourage employers to sign up to the Disability Confident scheme and change behaviour and cultures in their own businesses. There will be an opportunity for Q&A where specialist staff can provide answers to further enhance your business.
