There is a difference in employment rates between disabled and non-disabled people. Many disabled people and people with health conditions who can and want to work are excluded from the workplace.

This talking toolkit is based on a set of principles which represent good practice in supporting disabled workers and workers with long-term health conditions to get into and stay in work.

The principles represent best practice and go beyond what the law requires. Following them will help you to develop a supportive, enabling workplace culture that will benefit all workers.
