The Disability Status Review document is designed to assist you to:
  • Assess where your organisation stands at the current time in respect of employing people with disabilities and encouraging them as customers; and

  • Identify areas of priority, forming the basis of future action plans relevant to your particular business.
Disability Status Review
The Review is divided into sections following the Ten Points for Action developed by the national Employers’ forum on Disability (www.employers-forum.org.uk). You are asked to rate your organisation against certain criteria to give you an indication of areas for development.

It is important to note that each organisation using the review will have different priorities and starting points. Use the Review to help plan achievable changes in areas most relevant to you.
The Disability Status Review covers the following topics:
  • Equal Opportunities Policy and Procedures
  • Staff Training and Disability Awareness
  • The Working Environment
  • Recruitment
  • Employee Development
  • Retention, Retraining and Redeployment
  • Training and Work Experience
  • People with Disabilities in the Wider Community
  • Disability Legislation
  • Involvement of Disabled People
  • Monitoring Performance
  • Attitude Questionnaire & accompanying letter to staff
  • List of local and national organisations who can provide advice and assistance.(Please note, there is an updated version of these organisations at www.intowork.org.uk/Assistance/assistance.htm
