A Workplace Needs Assessment is a tailored service which provides specific recommendations for Reasonable Adjustments for employees, such as:
Changes to working practices
Specialist equipment and software
Coaching and training
Rather than focus on a medical diagnosis, our Workplace Needs Assessment investigates the barriers an employee is experiencing that prevent them from performing their role to the best of their abilities.
We have two packages available to suit employers needs and budget. Everything is listed so you know exactly what you will receive for your money. No hidden costs here!
Reduces Trial and Error
Our team of experts provide advice based on evidence-based recommendations, and of course the needs of the employee.
Ideally our assessment would be undertaken once an employee has been in post for at least 6 weeks. It is important to understand that an employee does not need any specific diagnoses to be offered a Workplace Needs Assessment.
Our packages
If the main issue an employee is struggling with is sight-loss or hearing-loss we would bring in a specialist sub-contractor to undertake the Workplace Needs Assessment, rather than undertaking it ourselves
