Webinar Series: Dealing with Disability in the Workplace

AbilityNet has created a series of free webinars for employers, HR professionals and employees to understand how technology can help disabled people in the workplace. These sessions are led by AbilityNet's workplace assessors and will focus on some of the most common problems they encounter in the workplace. They explain the reasonable adjustments that are recommended to meet the needs of the employee and ensure compliance with legal standards and best practice.

These are not technical sessions. They are designed to raise awareness amongst HR professionals and other non-technical staff of some of the issues that disabled people face in the workplace and some of the options which could meet their needs. 

Building better understanding amongst key HR staff is an important way of ensuring that disabled people get the support they need to be effective in the workplace and encourage diversity, as well as reducing the risk of claims of discrimination.
