Employee Support
As an employee, it is crucial to have a working environment that enables you to thrive. The Access to Work (ATW) scheme is designed to assist with this goal.
ATW is a government programme that provides support tailored to your specific needs, which may include a grant to help cover the costs of practical assistance in the workplace.
If you have a diagnosed disability, long-term health condition, or mental health condition, you are eligible for Access to Work support.
