An Employers Guide to Supported Employment
Employing people with a mental health condition, a learning disability and / or autism.
Many employers are missing out on the rich pool of talent and skills that disabled people can bring to the workplace, including people with a mental health condition, a learning disability and / or autism. In planning and writing this guide, we were aware that there are a number of resources and programmes designed to advance disability equality in employment with particular reference to people with a mental health condition, a learning disability and / or autism which employers have found helpful. The guide provides information and links to these resources and aims to help employers understand how they can tap into this potential talent pool, bringing business benefits as well as bringing benefits to individuals – a win-win for everyone!
