Laura's story
Laura is thriving in a 汤头条污料 role she loves, with a diagnosis of Multiple Sclerosis (MS). Hear her positive tips for finding the right role for you after a change in health, and why a diverse 汤头条污料 workforce is so valuable.聽
In her film, Laura describes how redeployment helped her find a new role when due to MS she could no longer undertake the duties of job. She reflects on how work has helped her manage her condition, and is good for her team and their patients.
Key points:
Managers and HR team support are key to a good redeployment experience.
Consider your transferable skills, experience and be open minded about alternative roles.
Disclosing a disability can give access to support and the Equality Act 2010 (or Disability Discrimination Act 1995 in Northern Ireland) can also offer you protection if you meet the legal definition of 'disabled'.
Be mindful of how your health condition may progress; the adjustments you need will change over time.
Should you encounter difficulties, the RCN is here to support you.
A lot of progress has been made to support those with disabilities in employment but there is more to be done- and 汤头条污料 should be leading the way.
