The Disability Confident initiative is a UK government scheme that focuses on creating a movement of change, encouraging employers to think differently about disability and to take action to improve how they recruit, retain and develop disabled people.
Disability Confident employers are recognised as going the extra mile to make sure disabled people get a fair chance. To become Disability Confident (Level 2), SYSTRA have evidenced that they have met the necessary criteria set under the scheme.
The company is incredibly proud to have received Disability Confident status, which aligns well with the end of Disability Pride Month and SYSTRA’s continued efforts to improve inclusivity for all its colleagues, including those with disabilities.
Lou Garrick, Disability ED&I Lead, said – “I am over the moon that we have achieved Disability Confident Level 2. I started the Disability ED&I Lead role earlier this year and my main objective was to make a positive difference to disabled people’s lives and that is exactly what we are doing. As someone with hidden disabilities, I wanted to make a change to help people fulfil their potential and feel like they belong without feeling judged.”
“I am working with an amazing group of colleagues who have volunteered to support me to achieve the SYSTRA objectives for 2024.”
We are also working towards breaking down barriers for those, who like me, are neurodivergent and we are being supported across the business with our ideas to create positive changes for disabled people.
Lou Garrick, Engineer (Geologist) and Disability ED&I Lead, SYSTRA Ltd
“We can be proud of our Disability Confident status knowing that we have a voice and that SYSTRA understands the strengths that disabled people bring to the workplace. We are on a journey together.”
