Access to Work: a guide for the arts and cultural sector - Employees

Access to Work is a resource that helps to create a more accessible work environment. It provides grants to remove barriers that disabled people face in undertaking paid employment. Disability Arts Online has produced this guide to interpret the Access to Work rules and official guidance with specific advice for the arts and cultural sector.
There are three parts to this guide: one for self-employed people, one for employers and this one, which is for employees.
The film is presented by Jess Thom and Deepa Shastri.
This Guide to Access to Work for the Arts and Cultural Sector was funded by Arts Council England and fact-checked by the Department for Work and Pensions and Arts Council England in June 2019 and updated in May 2024.
The full guide, accessible versions, case studies and resources are available at: www.disabilityarts.online/ATW
