Windsor, UK – 30th June 2020. MyPlus Consulting widely recognised as one of the UK’s leading authorities in disability employment, recruitment and development launches a series of services offerings for employers who have committed to disability inclusion at board level.
The MyPlus Consulting ‘6 steps to building a Disability Confident organisation’ provide consulting services for the progression of 6 key areas that MyPlus recommends organisations focus on: Business Case, Strategy, Inclusive Culture, Inclusive Recruitment, Education and Graduate Recruitment.
The first step, ‘Business Case’ looks at disability becoming a core element of the organisation’s diversity agenda, adding value to employees, the business, customers and local communities. Step two ‘Strategy’ builds the company’s capability to become Disability Confident through the development of strategy, operations and reputation. The third ‘Inclusive Culture’ is aimed at creating a culture where difference is recognised and valued and employees with disabilities can be open and access support.
Step four ‘Inclusive Recruitment’ is focused on opening up recruitment processes to enable more people with disabilities to apply and be successful. This is followed by ‘Education’ where building disability confidence amongst employees is addressed. The final step aimed at businesses with graduate recruitment programmes, helps Graduate Recruiters adjust the way they attract, assess and support graduates with disabilities.
