The Chartered Insurance Institute (CII) has partnered with Scope – the disability equality charity – to develop guidance on reporting and developing a diverse, inclusive working environment for people with disabilities. 

According to Scope, the insurance sector must face up to the need to do more to ensure everyone has the same access to employment.

Those working in the profession need to collect and report on their workforce’s disability data so that bosses can identify how many staff identify as disabled and how their experiences compare with their colleagues, it said.

Scope found many employers collect this data but few publish it publicly or use it to understand where disabled employees face barriers at work and use this evidence to inform plans to become more inclusive organisations.
