  1. Sharing information about your disability

    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.

  2. Sources of employment support and advice

    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.

  3. Self-employment

  4. Targeted opportunities for disabled individuals

    Many large employers are becoming more proactive to recruit candidates with disabilities, neurodiversity and long-term health conditions.
