Managing Disability, Reasonable Accommodation and Inclusion at Work

Employing people with disabilities is both a transformation imperative and a source of untapped talent across African workplaces. This programme equips HR teams to recruit, accommodate and retain employees with disabilities in a dignified and practical way. Delegates learn how to assess accommodation requests, adapt work environments and build a genuinely inclusive culture rather than a compliance exercise.
