How can you support people with disability to succeed at work? How can you get the support you need as an employee?
Reasonable adjustments are a right for everyone working in Australia.
They are changes that can be made within the workplace to support an employee with a disability, chronic illness or injury.
This includes neurodivergent people and people with mental health conditions as well.
In honour of International Day of People with Disability, we asked Konekt’s Shannen Sandford-Cooper, Jane Claxton and Jaimee Wood to explain:
- What are reasonable adjustments?
- How do they help?
- What can this look like?
