Disability at Tesco
Our network vision is that every decision we take as a business should consider disability – both colleagues and customers.
We use the skills and experience of the people with disabilities, their friends and allies within our organisation to help transform our business. We celebrate significant dates in the disability calendar, such as the International Day of Persons with Disabilities to increase awareness and drive change.
We are a proud ‘Disability Confident employer’ (Level 2). We offer activities to get the right people for our business and have programmes in place to attract, develop and retain disabled talent.
In the UK, we have established a strong relationship with Remploy and Shaw Trust, who help us find skilled and dedicated people with disabilities to work with us. We also provide a work experience programme for disabled children through the British mobility equipment charity, Whizz-Kidz.
We have a partnership with the Business Disability Forum, which provides support and expertise in building disability-smart organisations. We are also signatories to the Valuable 500 that aims to revolutionise disability inclusion through business leadership and opportunity.
