Disability Support at Digital Transformation Agency

We provide an accessible and inclusive work environment to all our employees.

We are committed to recruiting and retaining people with disability. This includes resolving potential barriers to the recruitment and employment processes of people with disability. We work with applicants to make adjustments throughout the recruitment process to ensure applicants with disability have an equitable opportunity.

Our employees can request workplace adjustments at any time. This includes employees:

with a disability
who have an illness, injury or impairment but do not identify as a person with a disability
who are neurodivergent but do not identify as a person with a disability
managing a chronic medical condition

We have a Disability Contact Officer that provides impartial and objective support, information, and evidence-based suggestions to employees with disability, their colleagues, and managers.

We celebrate and acknowledge International Day of People with Disability.

We promote and educate our employees on disability respectful communication and inclusive language and terminology.

We provide our managers with disability confidence and awareness training.

We provide workplace adjustments to ensure that neurodiverse employees have an accessible and inclusive environment.
We provide opportunities for specialised learning and development opportunities for employees that are neurodiverse.
