About this Event
<h4>The event on October 10, 2024, at Merthyr College, co-hosted by Legacy in the Community, Merthyr Jobcentre Plus/DWP, and Business Wales, aims to promote and encourage employer engagement with the Disability Confident Scheme.</h4>
This UK government initiative supports businesses in recruiting and retaining disabled individuals and those with health conditions.
The event seeks to address the low uptake of the Disability Confident Scheme by connecting participating employers with those who have not yet joined. It will provide a platform to discuss the benefits of the scheme, share best practices, and foster an inclusive work environment.
By attending, employers will gain valuable insights into the advantages of the Disability Confident Scheme, such as access to a broader talent pool, enhanced workplace diversity, and improved customer reputation. Participants will also learn about practical steps to become Disability Confident and hear success stories from businesses already benefiting from the scheme.
This collaborative effort underscores the importance of inclusivity in the workforce and aims to inspire more employers to commit to the Disability Confident principles, ultimately contributing to a more diverse and supportive job market.
Speakers at the event will include representatives from the DWP, Legacy in the Community and Business Wales plus others.
