Engaging with the Disability Sector for New Employees - 9/5/2017

| Tuesday May 9

Small Biz Matters – a half hour program each week where you can work ON your business rather than IN it.
with Alexi Boyd from Boyd Office Management Services
Date: 9 May 2017

For many reasons it's very important to be across the disability sector. Not just from the perspective of finding the ideal employee (which Northcott assists business with all the time) but also to be conscious of the needs of current and potential clients. Did you know one in five of your potential clients may be experiencing some sort of disability - and it’s not just the ones we can visually see. Is your business inviting, inclusive?

Hiring a new employee with a disability can be daunting but Kiran and Deenie are here to help. Taking listeners not only through the practical process but also the benefits and incentives available to small business owners when engaging with a disabled employee.

Welcome to the show Kiran & Deenie.

Topics we’ll be covering:

  • The importance and of having an inclusive workplace
  • The benefits to small business for hiring employees with a disability?
  • Who are Northcott and what are their values?
  • Are there any Govt or organisation grants, funding, subsidies which small businesses can access when employing an employee with a disability?
  • Tell us about the event on Wed 24th May
