Disability confident employer scheme

In the UK, nearly 6 million working-age people are disabled or living with a health condition. Despite this, there has historically been far fewer disabled people in work compared to non-disabled people. The government’s Disability Confident scheme aims to address this employment gap by encouraging employers to recruit, retain and support disabled people. Through the scheme, organisations commit to challenging perceptions, removing barriers and creating inclusive workplaces.

There are three levels of accreditation:

  • Level 1: Disability Confident Committed
  • Level 2: Disability Confident Employer
  • Level 3: Disability Confident Leader
