Published in: Member News

The Disability Confident scheme supports employers like you to make the most of the talents disabled people can bring to your workplace. Your organisation can benefit from joining a network of other organisations across the UK, that have already started their Disability and Inclusion journey.

Why you should become Disability Confident

More than 11 million employees work for a Disability Confident organisation. Being Disability Confident could help you discover someone your business just can’t do without.

Disability Confident organisations play a leading role in changing attitudes for the better. They’re changing behaviour and cultures in their own businesses, networks and communities, and reaping the benefits of inclusive recruitment practices.

Whether an employee has become disabled during their working life, or you’re looking for new recruits, being Disability Confident can help your people fulfil their potential and contribute fully to your team’s success.

By being Disability Confident, you’ll also be seen as leading the way in your business sector and beyond, helping to positively change attitudes, behaviours and cultures. It also helps customers and other businesses identify those employers who are committed to equality in the workplace.

How to become Disability Confident

Signing up to Disability Confident is easy and could help increase your understanding of disability and help new and existing disabled employees fulfil their potential.

The scheme has 3 levels designed to support you at every step on your Disability Confident journey. You must complete each level before moving on to the next.
