British Sign Language – Getting in, staying in and getting on: Disability employment support fit for the future (YouTube video)

In December 2010, the Secretary of State asked Liz Sayce, the Chief Executive of RADAR, the UK’s largest disability campaigning organisation, to conduct an independent review of the government’s specialist disability employment programmes. An aim of the review was to examine how more disabled people could be supported into work within the available funding. The findings of that review – ‘Getting in, staying in and getting on’ – are attached to this page.

On 11 July 2011, the government published:

• its response to Liz Sayce’s independent review of specialist disability employment programmes ‘Getting in, staying in, getting on’

• a consultation on the recommendations

On 7 March 2012, the government published its response to the 11 July consultation – ‘Disability Employment Support: Fulfilling Potential’. This set out the strategy for specialist disability employment programmes and includes a summary of the responses to the public consultation of the Sayce Review.
