Partner with us

The employment landscape is constantly changing and evolving. This provides opportunities to think about the type of society we want to live in, and make it a reality.

When you’re an Enable Works corporate partner, we help you work towards your goals of increasing inclusion within your workplace.

Why inclusion matters

It’s estimated that UK businesses lose £2 billion each month by not being accessible to disabled customers. There are one million disabled people in Scotland – 16 percent of them are of working age.

Having a diverse workforce is about more than being socially responsible. Different people bring new perspectives, knowledge and experience that complement the existing workforce and help fill skills gaps, creating a positive financial impact.

Smart businesses are inclusive

Diversity and inclusion are crucial to any organisation and have significant positive outcomes, such as:

• higher revenue growth

• reaching broader audiences

• greater readiness to innovate

• increased ability to recruit a diverse talent pool

• higher employee retention

Disabled and neurodivergent people can offer many skills to complement existing workforces. By reflecting the communities they serve, companies can bring about a cultural shift, build a better understanding of the needs of their employees and customers, and create a sense of belonging.

How we can help you become inclusive

We support businesses to understand how to attract, support and develop diverse talent. We offer a bespoke support package aligned to the needs of the business. Our aim is to share our knowledge and proven techniques, and provide practical advice and tools to support you to become more inclusive.

Why become a partner

As a partner you’ll have access to specialists who can support your business to become truly reflective of the communities you serve. Partnership is a low-cost way to start your inclusion journey. By becoming an Enable Works partner, you’ll join a network of like- minded organisations who are committed to diversity and inclusion.
