Workshop for employers: Diversity of disability and access needs – continuing the conversation

About the workshop:

Back by popular demand!

Accomodating access needs for employees with disability is very often easier than it sounds. This workshop is a unique opportunity to gain first-hand insight into the diversity of disability, how to communicate openly about access needs, and how to effectively accommodate your disabled employees.

Come along with your questions, scenarios, successes and learnings to share and discuss with other employers and disability experts from The Field and CYDA.

Facilitated by:
