Employment Rights Bill

Contribution

We must be clear-eyed about what lies behind this. It is not just a matter of disabled people being in different kinds of work; it is about career development being so much more difficult to access and it is about workplace culture, often unintentionally, making it more difficult for disabled people to thrive. It is about assumptions about what disabled people can do, assumptions that quietly lower expectations and make it harder for people to be heard, promoted or properly valued.
