Webinar

With 1 in 3 of us impacted by disability, disability inclusion must be embedded throughout your organization. This requires it to be ‘business as usual’ as opposed to something that is considered an ‘extra’ or an ‘add on’. However, disability is a huge topic, and it can be difficult to know where to start your journey of building a disability inclusive workplace.

At MyPlus we take a 6-step approach to building disability confidence; in this webinar we are going to explore 3 of these. We will start with developing your strategy not least that progress is hard to achieve if you aren’t clear where you currently are and where you want to be with regards to disability inclusion, and what needs to happen to get there.

We will then move on to look at how to create an inclusive culture since diversity on its own isn’t sufficient. An environment that promotes inclusion must also be created and valued if business benefits are to be truly realized, and where all employees can be open & access the support and adjustments they require.

And finally, we will look at inclusive recruitment; no organisation intentionally has barriers in its recruitment process however it is crucial to objectively review your end-to-end process through a disability lens to ensure that no barriers exist. At each stage of the process, you need to be asking yourself the question: Are we doing enough to create a level playing field?

This webinar will be invaluable for those at the start of their disability agenda and are wondering where to begin, as well as for those who are further progressed and wish to check in on their progress and approach. It will be particularly insightful for anyone responsible for the EDI strategy and implementation at all levels.

 If disability is not on your board’s agenda, then neither is diversity
