There are a number of initiatives and organisations that support employers to ensure that their recruitment process and working practices do not discriminate against jobseekers and employees with a disability or long-term health condition.
Understanding the law will allow you to advocate for yourself and know your rights as a disabled job-seeker or employee.
On this page you will find employability support and resources to aid with the transition from LJMU to the workplace.
Many students and graduates with a disability, health condition or neurodiversity worry about whether to tell a prospective or current employer. In legal terms, this is referred to as ‘disclosure’. It is both a balancing act and a personal decision whether and when you want to share information about your disability during the recruitment process or in the workplace.
The organisations on this webpage offer a range of advice, support and guidance on recruitment and employment issues including sharing information about your disability or health condition with prospective employers.
