You Don’t Need to Be an Expert to Get It Right.
With hundreds of disabilities and conditions, it’s impossible for HR professionals and managers to understand everyone—and they don’t need to. Having a disability doesn’t mean someone can’t work, meet expectations or make a valuable contribution.
Yet disability can still create uncertainty in the workplace. What can I ask? What if I say the wrong thing? What does a workplace adjustment look like? What about safety, productivity and performance?
In this practical 30-minute webinar, we’ll take some of the uncertainty out of disability at work. We’ll explore the many ways disability can show up—including disabilities we may never see—challenge common assumptions, and focus on what employers really need to know when working with candidates and employees with disabilities.
You’ll learn how to have more confident conversations, focus on ability and contribution, and approach workplace adjustments as practical ways of helping people do their best work—without automatically lowering expectations or changing the essential requirements of the job.
Because you don’t need to understand every disability to get it right.
Focus on what the person can do, what the work requires, and what might help them succeed.
