We spoke to our trainers to get their thoughts on some frequently asked questions.

❓ When is someone legally considered disabled? ❓

Under the Equality Act 2010, a person is generally disabled if they have a physical or mental impairment that has a substantial and long-term negative effect on their ability to carry out normal day-to-day activities.

“Substantial” means more than minor or trivial, while “long-term” generally means lasting, or likely to last, at least 12 months.

Some conditions, including cancer, HIV and multiple sclerosis, are covered from diagnosis.

Understanding what counts as a disability is an important part of creating inclusive workplaces and ensuring people can access the support and protections they are entitled to.

🌟 𝗖𝗹𝗶𝗲𝗻𝘁 𝘀𝗽𝗼𝘁𝗹𝗶𝗴𝗵𝘁: Mears Group PLC

We’re delighted to be supporting Mears Group with its Fairness and Inclusion for Leaders development.

Mears is a leading provider of services to the UK housing sector, employing almost 6,000 colleagues and managing and maintaining approximately 450,000 homes across the country.

At the heart of its culture are four clear Red Thread behaviours:
👥 People – putting people first
🎯 Purpose – doing the right thing with clear intent
📈 Better – taking responsibility and making things better
🤝 Together – working and achieving together

Our bespoke work is focused on helping leaders translate those values into consistent, observable behaviours: creating psychological safety, recognising and challenging bias, making fair decisions and taking meaningful responsibility for inclusion within their teams.

What has particularly stood out to us is that this is not being approached as a reactive or tick-box exercise. Mears is building on established foundations and a strong commitment to fairness, social mobility and the communities it serves.

Meaningful inclusion is rarely achieved through a single training session. It requires visible leadership, behavioural clarity, honest reflection and continued accountability.

We’re proud to support an organisation that is not simply asking, “Have we delivered inclusion training?” but instead, “How do we make inclusive leadership visible, credible and enduring?”

👏 Thank you to everyone involved for the openness, engagement and willingness to explore the conversations that genuinely make a difference.

Where do reasonable adjustments stop?

A common concern around reasonable adjustments is that making things more accessible somehow means lowering standards.

It doesn’t.

Reasonable adjustments are about removing barriers, not removing expectations. People still need clear objectives, support, feedback and accountability. But they shouldn’t be set up to fail because the workplace hasn’t considered what they need to work effectively.

For example a disabled employee may still need to attend key meetings, but could need accessible technology, captions, a different room or breaks built in.

Inclusion does not mean lowering standards. It means removing unnecessary barriers so people have a fair chance of meeting them.

For managers, this distinction really matters. Done well, reasonable adjustments can improve clarity, performance and trust. It’s also important that everyone understands what has been agreed and how success will be measured.

What’s one reasonable adjustment you’ve seen make a real difference?

From Baby Boomers to Gen Z, today’s workplaces bring together people with very different experiences, expectations and ways of working.

But one of the biggest takeaways from our recent session was that generational differences aren’t as simple as they might seem.

We looked at why it’s important not to let assumptions about someone’s age become assumptions about who they are or how they work.

A few things we took away:
• Generational stereotypes can create bias in the workplace.
• People within the same generation can have very different experiences and expectations.
• Inclusive workplaces recognise differences without making assumptions.
• Fairness doesn’t always mean treating everyone in exactly the same way.
• Understanding different perspectives can help teams work better together.

Ultimately, creating an inclusive workplace isn’t about finding the perfect way to work for every generation. It’s about creating space for people to communicate, contribute and be supported as individuals.

What’s one thing you’ve noticed about generational differences in your workplace?

One of the biggest misconceptions we hear is that reasonable adjustments give disabled employees an unfair advantage.

In reality, reasonable adjustments are about removing barriers, not creating advantages.

The goal isn't to lower expectations or treat people more favourably.

It's to make sure disabled people have a fair opportunity to access, participate in and succeed at work.

When managers understand this distinction, conversations become more constructive, decisions become more consistent, and workplaces become more inclusive.

Creating an inclusive workplace starts with understanding what reasonable adjustments are designed to achieve.
