Embracing a more diverse workplace
Understanding - and being understood - is a growing challenge in today’s diverse workplace, where almost 8 million people are born outside the UK and 19% of the working population have some form of disability. What’s more, ‘hidden’ disabilities like dyslexia can deter employees from reaching their full potential without extra support.
Satisfied employees are over 30% more productive and 10% more engaged. Assistive technology software alone has been shown to increase staff engagement and performance in the workplace by a fifth, simply by removing the barriers to communication.
