Online

LinkedInFacebookEmailShare
Back
Overview

The Government’s recent Disability Action Plan highlighted that there are
approximately 1.3 million more disabled people in employment today than in 2017.
Despite this growing number, there still remains clear and significant gaps in
educational level, pay, and prejudice against those with disabilities according
research from Scope UK.

In response, the Government have  published the Transforming Support: Health and
Disability White Paper, outlining new policies, guidance, and grants to support
employers. Through collaborative approaches with colleagues, and utilising
modern technology and data, HR professionals can build upon existing good work
by sharing exemplary best practice and key insights into developing an inclusive
workplace culture which can enable disabled employees to achieve their full
potential.

 * There remains a more than 25% gap between the employment rate of working age
   disabled people compared to non-disabled people, according to the Office of
   National Statistics (2022)
 * While 1 in 3 disabled people agree that there is significant disability
   prejudice in Britain today, only 1 in 5 non-disabled people agree, as shown
   by research from Scope UK (2022)
 * Analysis published by the TUC showcases that non-disabled workers earn on
   average 14.6% more than disabled workers (2023)
 * The number of disabled workers reporting a mental health condition has
   increased by 97% in the last decade, according to a 2023 report by the
   Department for Work and Pensions
