ECL announces Inclusive Employment Scheme. A ground-breaking Inclusive Employment service in Essex is supporting adults with learning disabilities and autism to achieve their aspirations of gaining paid employment which matches their skills and interests. Over the past 12 months, despite the pandemic, 60 adults with learning disabilities and autism have secured employment with the support of care provider ECL, working in partnership with Essex County Council. ECL’s specialist Inclusive Employment team has worked closely with the candidates, their families and support network to help them find and keep their ideal role. This includes career guidance, vocational skills development, CV writing, interview support and ongoing coaching and mentoring in the workplace for as long as it’s needed. The ECL Inclusive Employment consultants also provide expert advice and practical support to employers. Over the past year the team has held positive conversations with over 500 Essex based employers about becoming Disability Confident employers.
