This report, part of the ‘Working Better’ series, presents a reality check – a fresh look at the work aspirations and experiences of disabled people today in order to identify new solutions. We present newly published evidence on the impact of current disability and work ‘remedies’ – what’s working well for individuals and businesses and what might work better to make the most of the abilities and potential of disabled employees. We explore barriers created by traditional ways of working, and the potential of flexibility and re-configured work to support innovative workplace delivery of the social model of disability.
The key objective of the project was to learn how we could make work a much more positive experience and open up better work opportunities for disabled people. This meant looking closely at access and progression to ‘quality’ work opportunities and to careers – not just to getting a job and being in employment.
