Disability passport launched

The TUC and the GMB  launched a new disability passport to help disabled people who fall out of work or switch employers each year to get the support they need.

The TUC says "disabled people still face significant barriers to getting a job and staying in employment. We need all workplaces to be accessible, inclusive and without barriers that prevent equal participation of disabled people".

Trade unions have a vital role in helping to address major work inequalities both through supporting their disabled members in work and ensuring that employers implement inclusive policies and practices in the workplace.
