Skyscanner получил статус работодателя с высоким уровнем доступности для людей с инвалидностью

Skyscanner becomes level two disability confident employer Travel planner organisation Skyscanner has achieved level two disability confident employer status as part of its ongoing journey to build a more accessible and inclusive workplace. The UK government’s disability confident programme supports employers to recruit, retain and develop disabled employees and employees with health conditions, providing a framework for organisations to continually strengthen their approach to disability inclusion. Skyscanner became a disability confident committed employer in 2024. As part of its disability inclusion journey, it has continued to strengthen its approach to recruitment, workplace accessibility, reasonable adjustments, and staff learning and awareness. It was recognised due to its clear guidance and support around reasonable adjustments, including an adjustments passport to help staff have conversations about the support they need, and introducing learning to help managers approach those conversations with greater confidence. Additionally, its workplace facilities and career sites have been audited for accessibility, with improvements including quiet rooms for focused space, as well as enhanced language to better showcase support for candidates during the recruitment process. The organisation is also continuing to look at the accessibility of its workplaces and ways of working, while its DEI Champions Network advocates for accessibility, disability inclusion and neurodiversity. A Skyscanner spokesperson said: “We want Skyscanner to be a place where everyone can belong and thrive. Disability confident gives us another way to benchmark our progress, challenge ourselves and make sure our commitments are backed by action. Just as importantly, it encourages us to keep listening to the lived experiences of our people and evolving our approach as we learn. “Achieving level two is something we’re proud of; but it’s a milestone, not the end goal. Our ambition is to continue building on this progress and work towards becoming a disability confident leader (level three) by 2029. There’s more to do, and that’s exactly why milestones like this matter: they give us an opportunity to recognise how far we’ve come while keeping our focus firmly on where we’re going next.”
