Happy International Day of People with Disabilities

Some folks are cynical about days of recognition like this, but I’ve never really understood why.

Yes it’s but a single day and yes the work in between days is where much of the action needs to be, but recognition where it’s due. Many workplaces put a lot of effort into this day and I say it’s totally worth it.

Personally, this day was one of my first experiences many years ago of a broader workplace conversation about disability inclusion, and since then I’ve seen many colleagues and clients experience their first deeper focus on this issue on IDoPWD. These days can also be pivotal moments for individuals to share their lived experience. Some of the most genuine and impactful workplace storytelling happens on this day every year. 🙌

And what a great platform on which to build a plan for positive change over the year ahead.

Best wishes for a day of successful story telling and resolution forming!

Spending energy on concealing thoughts, feelings and abilities at work can leave you feeling burnt-out and disconnected.

You might be doing this because you aren’t comfortable talking to your employer about your requirements or because you are just used to “getting on with it”. It shouldn’t be that way!

We work exclusively for employers who are looking for fantastic candidates like you, and who want to know what they can do to help you thrive.
