Help spread Neurodiversity Awareness in the workplace with our T shirts, Hoodies & Prints
Why should your workplace change to cater to you?
Disability Rights, that's why.
Living in a world only catered to people who are not disabled in any way, is unfair.
People with disabilities, visible or not, should have equal rights.
When a company encourages people with disabilities to apply for a job,
they frequently only refer to the application process,
but what about people already in the job?
A company’s processes and systems frequently don't acknowledge disabled employees working twice as hard behind the scenes, on systems not designed with their needs in mind.
They are not given the same opportunities for advancement, because they function differently, despite their efforts in succeeding in a job with systems and environments which actively works against them.
This is usually unnoticed by employers, so careers don't progress.
Employers need to understand that having policies around non-discrimination of disability is only one aspect of an inclusive environment without discrimination.
Actively ensuring that managers and HR have a comprehensive understanding of an disabilities, however, is another and where many employers fall short.
Not only should disabled people's needs be accommodated, but they deserve equal opportunities in the workplace.
Our selection of Wall Prints and Mugs are a great addition to the office as a reminder of this.
