A Guide to Improving Staff Disability Data
Following the introduction of the NHS Workforce Disability Equality Standard (WDES) and the mandated requirements that trusts are now subjected to - it is perhaps more important than ever that the NHS is inclusive and welcomes disabled people. A positive and proactive approach by employers towards disability, both during the recruitment process and as part of everyday management, is key to creating an inclusive and open culture.

Disability Workforce Reporting
There are more than 7 million people of working age with a disability or long-term health condition in the UK. Around half of them are in work but many more would like to work, and they represent a great source of skills and talent. Most organisations now realise the importance of inclusive work cultures and the benefits that equality, diversity and inclusion (EDI) can deliver for them and the people who work for them, but some people with disabilities or long-term health conditions face prejudice or cannot access the support they need to help them reach their potential or even remain in work and progress their career.
