Employer Podcast

Welcome to the fourth podcast from Jobcentre Plus. Every month we’ll taking a look at a key issue in the world of recruitment and employee retention and present you with a range of views from across the business and HR community.

This month we discuss the value that disabled employees can bring to a business.  We hear the views of two businesses and from an independent disability consultant who is also an experienced HR professional.

By having a positive attitude to the recruitment, training and retention of disabled workers and those with long term health conditions, companies are tapping in to a great skills resource that ultimately benefits their business.
