Employers guide to employing people with a learning disability

This guide explores the practical implications of adopting a more inclusive approach to recruiting people with a learning disability.

We know that people with a learning disability can and do make hard working and enthusiastic employees. They bring new skills, talents and perspectives to their employers and, with the right support, they will remain loyal and longstanding employees. 

Inside, we present information about Supported Employment and Job Coaching including:
  • tips on how and where to get this type of support
  • how to get funding for it
  • and how to work with Job Coaches.

Importantly, we capture the experiences of a number of employers for whom employing people with a learning disability has been a successful and rewarding experience.
