Episode 228 - Disability inclusion in the workplace

In this episode, we are joined by Eddie Grant, Disability and Access Ambassador for Insurance, and Kate Headley, co-founder and CEO of The Clear Company, a leading culture, diversity and inclusion consultancy. Kate was appointed Disability and Access Ambassador for Recruitment in 2022 and is a leading voice in helping organisations create more inclusive workplaces. We'll discuss the progress being made towards greater disability inclusion across UK workplaces. We'll explore the role of the Disability and Access Ambassadors, the impact of the Keep Britain Working review, what organisations can do to move beyond compliance and create genuinely inclusive cultures, and how sectors such as insurance and financial planning can play a leading role in improving outcomes for disabled people.
