The EIS also recognises the insight and experience that disabled workers can bring to their establishments, for the diversity of thought and perspective in the workplace, and also particularly at a time when a growing number of learners have additional support needs. It can be valuable for learners, whether disabled or not, to see disabled adults thrive in their jobs, and that educational establishments can be inclusive environments for all.<\/p><p>Unfortunately, disabled workers continue to experience barriers to their fair and equitable participation at work, and the realisation of their rights to reasonable adjustments. Neither education systems, nor workplaces are designed with disabled people in mind, which puts disabled workers at substantial disadvantages compared to others in the workplace. To level the playing field, it is essential that reasonable adjustments are implemented effectively and respectfully.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-cf8ef69 elementor-widget-divider--view-line elementor-widget elementor-widget-divider\" data-id=\"cf8ef69\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"divider.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-divider\">\n\t\t\t<span class=\"elementor-divider-separator\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/span>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-1efd025 elementor-widget elementor-widget-spacer\" data-id=\"1efd025\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"spacer.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-spacer\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-spacer-inner\"><\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>What is the social model of disability? https:\/\/equality.eis.org.uk\/voicesinunion-keyissues\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/What-is-the-social-model-of-disability-Equality-Reps.mp4 Learning points The medical model says the problem is the person; the social model says that it\u2019s social barriers like other people\u2019s attitudes about disabled people, inaccessible buildings, transport and communication methods, and the inflexible ways in which things like services, education and employment are organised.
