People are an organisations most important asset. In order to recruit the most competent employees, you need to select from the broadest pool of candidates, including those who have a disability. In doing so, you can harness a more diverse range of experiences and skills.
Address your skills shortages by opening your recruitment processes up to disabled talent – with 17% of the population (approximately 11 million people) and over 11% of graduates having a disability or a long-term health condition, by focusing on this disabled talent you will grow your talent pool and reach individuals you might normally miss.
Disabled individuals develop skills as a result of their disabilities. Having a disability or long-term health condition challenges individuals to develop unique strengths and talents, giving the person something extra, a Plus. By recognising the opportunity and opening your eyes to the value disabled individuals can bring, you can fill your skills gap shortage and tap into a new talent pool.
