About this course
Disability inclusion is an important part of creating a fair, accessible and supportive workplace. This Disability Inclusion & Disability Confident Workplace Awareness course introduces practical ways organisations can remove barriers and create better experiences for disabled employees and applicants.
The course explores disability awareness, the social model of disability, workplace accessibility, inclusive communication, reasonable adjustments, recruitment, onboarding, career development and employee retention.
Learners will also develop an understanding of the Equality Act 2010 and the workplace principles behind reasonable adjustments. Employers have legal duties to make reasonable adjustments where a disabled person would otherwise face substantial disadvantage.
The course also introduces the UK Government's Disability Confident scheme and its three levels, helping learners understand how organisations can move from basic awareness towards stronger disability-inclusive workplace practices.
This awareness course is suitable for employees, managers, supervisors, HR professionals, business owners and anyone who wants to contribute to a more inclusive workplace.
