Businesses
are being invited to a free event to celebrate ‘Year of Disabled Worker’ on
Thursday 8 December at the Beach Ballroom.
Attendees will be able to gain
practical insights into recruiting, retaining and including disabled people at
work, and to learn about the advice and support available to employers and
employees to help a business become more inclusive.
Employers, support agencies and
disabled workers will also be in attendance to discuss the benefits that people
with disabilities can bring to an organisation.
The Lord Provost of Aberdeen, Dr
David Cameron, will introduce the event, supported by Aberdeen City Council
Chief Executive Angela Scott.
The Lord Provost said: “An
inclusive workplace brings benefits across the board – for employees,
customers, the organisation, and across the wider city.
“We hope as many Aberdeen
businesses as possible attend the event on December 8 so they might celebrate
the Year of Disabled Workers 2022.”
The 2022 Year of Disabled Workers
information event is being held on Thursday 8 December at the Beach Ballroom,
starting at 10am. Booking is essential and can be done online: 2022 Year of Disabled Workers
