Are you motivated to improve your understanding of sustainability and build specialist skills and knowledge for your future career?
Understanding the law will allow you to advocate for yourself and know your rights as a disabled job-seeker or employee.
Self-employment can be well suited to disabled or neurodivergent students and graduates, if you find it difficult to keep up with traditional work.
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.
Many large employers are becoming more proactive to recruit candidates with disabilities, neurodiversity and long-term health conditions. Some run their own schemes targeting disabled applicants, while others work with specialist organisations that manage the recruitment process on their behalf.
If you have accessed support for your disability or health condition throughout school and university, e.g. in the form of a support plan or funding, you might be concerned about similar support being available to you in the workplace.
Part-time work is a great way to earn money, gain work experience, develop key skills and evidence skills on your CV!
