How this site works

We understand that every person, professional, organization and company may be at a different point in their inclusive employment journey. To help you find what you need, no matter where you’re at, and whatever your questions, we have organized The Inclusive Workplace to be explorable a few different ways. 

First, you can explore the many resources on this site by following the drop down options by group. For example, if you are an employer, someone who makes decisions about hiring and policies, or an HR professional, you’ll find our  "For Employer" section useful. Think of the dropdown tabs as milemarkers or stops on your journey into inclusive employment. If you are a support person or professional who provides supports through an agency or any other way, follow the stops under “For Agencies.” And if you are a job seeker or existing employee looking for information about self-advocacy, connecting to supports, and much more, check out the options under “For Jobseekers/Employees”. 

If you're interested in a particular topic, like accommodations, interviewing practices, or EDI planning, you can also click on the subject tags that fit your area of interest. This will let you see all the resources available that touch on that area. 

Finally, this site is searchable using the search bar. 

So, explore our resources, ask questions, and remember that we're here to support you as you build a more inclusive workplace.
