Disability
We understand that disability can affect many people and covers a wide range of conditions of which some are not visible.
Disability in the workplace
Our commitment to you
- Making physical changes – e.g. installing a ramp for a wheelchair user or an audio-visual fire alarm for a deaf person
- Working to make our buildings inclusive for all, whilst ensuring any additional needs are met (e.g. holding meetings in ground floor rooms if a wheelchair user is attending)
- Providing specialist equipment where necessary (e.g. an adapted keyboard for a colleague with arthritis)
- Supporting employees who become disabled to make a phased return to work – e.g. working flexible hours or part-time.
