Disability Confident Employer Commitment

The Disability Confident scheme supports employers to make the most of the talents disabled people can bring to the workplace. Being Disability Confident is an opportunity for employers to lead the way in their community and to discover skills and talents they cannot do without. It can help all your people fulfil their potential and contribute fully to your team’s success.

The scheme is voluntary and access to the guidance, self-assessments and resources is completely free.

The 3 levels are designed to support you on your Disability Confident journey. You must complete each level before moving on to the next.

The guidance for each level explains which commitments you must agree to and which actions you need to take to successfully become:

• Committed (level 1)

• Employer (level 2)

• Leader (level 3)

Mindsight

Flipping the focus

Mindsight. It’s a new outlook that’s all about heart action. Educating the head and empowering the heart to act, to support ourselves and others. We’re a people over profit partner, helping to build the right culture before the crisis and create sustainable, thriving environments in the workspace and beyond.

What we do…

It’s not subtle. We’re creating a new world evolution where physical and mental health are equal. WE WILL positively impact negative mental health statistics, in and outside the workplace. And this is how we’re doing it…

Educate : We help businesses focus on their number one asset; their people, so they thrive in and beyond the workspace.

Engage : This is a lifestyle change, a cultural shift where people are ready to lean into conversations of the heart.

Enlighten : Understanding, sharing what we're going through, and equipping individuals to build environments of care.

Empower : The power of positive change starts with one purposeful conversation.

Enable : Through our model, EVERY ONE of our interactions WILL create at least 6 more positive wellbeing engagements.
