Disability workforce reporting consultation

Should employers be required to report on disability in their workforce? On 16 December 2021, the Disability Unit of the Cabinet Office published a consultation on disability workforce reporting (the Consultation). The Consultation forms part of the National Disability Strategy and seeks views on mandatory and voluntary reporting of disability in the workforce for employers with more than 250 employees. With the aim of achieving more inclusive workforces, the Consultation invites responses from large employers and their representative organisations, trade unions, disabled people and organisations who engage or employ disabled people.
