Supported employment training
Recruiting and retaining a diverse workforce
This course provides the opportunity for HR managers with a responsibility for recruitment and retention within Local Authorities, and larger private companies to participate in a workshop that identifies the barriers that people face to gaining employment coupled with the challenge that many employers face when recruiting or retaining employees with a disability. The course concentrates on raising awareness of the support that is available across the UK and the benefits of recruiting and retaining a diverse workforce. Recruitment methods, practices, policies and procedures come under the spotlight for open discussion on what works and what doesn’t and how making a reasonable adjustment, in most cases at low or no cost, can be all that is required to make a difference to those facing real barriers to gaining meaningful paid employment.
