We continue to be a Disability Confident employer

We are proud to share that we've renewed our Level 2 Disability Confident badge as a member of the Disability Confident government scheme. We have now been a Disability Confident Employer for five years running.

In September, our Recruitment team were assessed by the Disability Confident team to make sure that the way we recruit, retain, and develop disabled people continues to be fair and inclusive of disabled peoples’ rights, requirements and opportunities.

Our Disability Confident Employer badge recognises that we:

• have undertaken and successfully completed the Disability Confident self-assessment
• are taking all of the core actions to be a Disability Confident employer
• are offering at least one activity to get the right people for our business and at least one activity to keep and develop our people.

Our Director of People Experience, Emily Webber, says: “It’s great news that GreenSquareAccord are being repeatedly recognised as a Disability Confident Employer.

“Our Equality, Diversity and Inclusion strategy sets out our commitments for our colleagues at all stages of their journey with us, including potential employees.

“It is important for us to demonstrate these commitments by making conscious changes to be more inclusive and to build a diverse workforce that represents the customers and communities we support.

“I’d like to thank the Recruitment team for working hard to ensure our assessment by the Disability Confident team was a success.

“I’m really proud to be a part of a team that seeks to support all individuals in achieving their career aspirations.”
