Being led and run by disabled and Deaf people helps us understand the issues facing disabled and Deaf people. We have established trust and credibility within the community, and have a strong commitment to partnership working to provide better services for disabled people.
Living Options Devon is a Disability Confident Leader
As a Disability Confident Leader, we are committed to having a diverse workforce and recruiting and retaining disabled and / or Deaf people and those with long term health conditions. Our commitment to equality and inclusion is central to our mission. We actively encourage applications from disabled and / or Deaf candidates and those with long term health conditions.
As such we ensure the following:
- We interview all applicants with a disability who successfully evidence the essential criteria on the job description / person specification and consider them on their abilities.
- Provide an inclusive and accessible recruitment process.
- Support our disabled / Deaf staff by offering flexible work arrangements and facilitating reasonable adjustments during employment.
- Promote skills development and conduct disability equality training for our entire staff and volunteers.
