Positive about Disability Symbol

What the symbol means

The symbol is a recognition given by Jobcentre Plus to employers who have agreed to make certain positive commitments regarding the employment, retention, training and career development of disabled people.

NTN will:

interview all disabled applicants who meet the minimum criteria for a job vacancy and to consider them on their abilities

ensure there is a mechanism in place to discuss, at any time but at least once a year, with disabled employees, what both parties can do to make sure disabled employees can develop and use their abilities

make every effort when employees become disabled to make sure they stay in employment

take action to ensure that all employees develop the appropriate level of disability awareness needed to make sure these commitments work

review these commitments each year and assess what has been achieved, plan ways to improve on them and let employees and Jobcentre Plus know about progress and future plans

PRD Website - NEW Resource Site


Self regulation is the way forward, enabling providers to take greater responsibility, both
individually and collectively for the planning and improving of provision. Peer Review is an
integral part of this process.

Peer Review and Development is defined as: “a process whereby professionals of similar status or standing exercise collective judgments about the quality and standards of provision, as well as shared responsibilities for their improvement.”

Key principles of any Peer Review and Development approach:

- A collaborative process involving peers
- A whole organisation approach building from a focus which has been negotiated within the PRD Group and/or nominated by the host
- Specifically directed at helping improvement
- Emphasis placed on listening to the voice of the learners
