Is this the same as the main Access to Work guide?
No. The main guide explains Access to Work. This hub routes people into practical support pages linked to coaching, assessments, assistive technology and implementation.

How to use this hub
Connect Access to Work recommendations to practical support
The main Access to Work guide explains the funding route. These support guides focus on what happens around it: coaching, assistive technology training, workplace assessments and implementation.
Employers still need to consider reasonable adjustments. Access to Work may help fund practical support, but it does not replace employer responsibility.
Practical checks
- Read the main Access to Work guide first if you are new to the scheme.
- Use the subpages to understand practical support routes.
- Keep recommendations linked to the person’s role and manager actions.
- Review whether support has been implemented and is working.
