What is a Workplace Adjustment or Inclusion Passport?


A workplace adjustment passport, also known as an inclusion passport or reasonable adjustment passport, is a personalised document that safely records any agreed workplace adjustments an employee may need to perform at their best. 

Reasonable adjustments are alterations that employers must (under the Equality Act 2010) make to remove or reduce disadvantages related to an employee’s disability. They can range from ergonomic workstation upgrades for employees suffering from arthritis to voice dictation software or screen readers for those with visual or auditory impairments.

Organisations must legally provide reasonable employee adjustments to ensure everybody has the potential to perform at their best at work. 

A workplace inclusion passport supports open conversations around disabilities, health conditions, neurodivergence, or personal circumstances that could impact an employee’s work experience.

ClearTalents’ DEI Software


ClearTalents provides a user-friendly DEI software platform that streamlines the workplace accommodation passport process for both employees and employers. 

Employees can securely create and update up to three workplace adjustment profiles, two of which are workstation-based (for both home and office locations), while the first is their inclusion passport. The profile will present questions pertaining to limitations, circumstances, conditions, and any necessary workplace changes.

This information seamlessly flows to the appropriate managers and HR teams who are then entrusted to respond and facilitate any necessary changes. Managers may, in a very small percentage of cases, need to seek advice from Occupational Health, Access to Work or an outsourced HR organisation before certain adjustments can be agreed and made.

By removing barriers and providing legally reasonable adjustments under the Equality Act 2010, employers can attract, support, and retain diverse talent across disabilities, neurodivergences, health conditions, and personal circumstances.
