3. Helping people with disability get jobs

What is our goal?

We want our Council to be more diverse.

We know that people with disability can face issues to find and keep a job.

We want to make sure everyone in the Tweed can:

  • learn
  • work.

This will support everyone in our community to:

  • earn money
  • be healthy
  • live how they want.

What will we do?

We will think about different ways that people with disability can work with the Council.

To do this, we’ll work with:

  • disability organisations
  • organisations who speak up for people with disability
  • researchers.

We will:

  • share information about Council jobs
  • train our staff.

We will check programs that support people with disability to find and keep a job.

This can improve the way the programs work.

And we will also check how inclusive and accessible it is to work for the Council.

This includes:

  • where people work
  • equipment.
