Consultancy and Advisory Service
The Unit is in regular contact with local employers regarding the introduction of good employment practice in dealing with the recruitment and retention of disabled people and provides training in Disability Awareness and the Disability Discrimination Act. The Employment Disability Unit has developed policies and procedures on the Guaranteed Job Interview Scheme, Retention and Redeployment of Employees with Disabilities and the Provision of Work Experience Placements for People with Disabilities.
Staff also provide guidance to other support organisations for disabled people and the Unit is the co-ordinating agency for the Supported Employment Network in Tayside.
The activities and contacts built up through assisting and advising employers and support organisations help break down the barriers of apprehension and create employment opportunities for disabled people.
