SUMMARY:Creating a Workplace Culture of Belonging Requires a Broad DEI Lens
DESCRIPTION:Diversity\, Equity\, and Inclusion (DEI) are terms used more commonly now than ever. That said\, not everyone repeating these terms is consciously implementing behaviors to promote more diverse\, equitable\, and inclusive environments for all. \nWhen we think of DEI\, we often think of race and ethnicity.

SUMMARY:IRS Information Session for Individuals with Disabilities (Schedule A)
DESCRIPTION:At the IRS\, we believe in the abilities of all our employees\, and we’re committed to hiring qualified individuals at all levels of our organization. Our goal at the IRS\, as an employer of individuals with disabilities\, is to be a model within the federal government and for companies in the private sector. \nDuring this information session\, we will provide an overview of IRS benefits\, the Schedule A hiring program and documentation requirements\, how to apply for positions with the IRS\, and provide tips for creating an effective resume. We will also have HR Specialists available to answer questions that you have about the application process. ASL interpreters will be available during the event. \nAbout Schedule A: \nSchedule A is an Excepted Service appointing authority for Federal agencies to tap into a diverse talent pool of individuals with disabilities without going through the (often-lengthy) traditional hiring process. Eligible applicants must be a person with severe physical\, psychiatric\, or mental impairment that substantially limits one or more major life activities\, or intellectual disability\, psychiatric disorders\, muscular or neurological disorders. Other less obvious disabilities are also subject to eligibility such as lupus\, AIDS\, diabetes\, or heart disease. Other groups that may apply using the Schedule A appointment authority are disabled veterans with a 30% or more rating from the Department of Veterans Affairs or Department of Defense. The Schedule A appointment is two (2) years; however\, individuals are eligible for conversion to a permanent position with the IRS upon successful completion of the Schedule A appointment. \nRegister today!

SUMMARY:Retaining Valued Employees with Disabilities: The Importance of Performance Coaching and Management
DESCRIPTION:Performance coaching and management is an important component of retaining all workers including those with disabilities. Effective performance management helps employees understand the duties of their job\, as well as advance in their careers. In celebration of National Disability Employment Awareness Month (NDEAM)\, EARN invites employers and managers to help make disability part of the equity equation by learning how to ensure that workers with disabilities can succeed on the job. \nAll employees\, including those with disabilities\, benefit from regular feedback on their performance. Effective performance management provides the employee with opportunities to grow existing skills and develop new ones. However\, some managers may shy away from having productive performance conversations with employees with disabilities or health conditions because they feel uncomfortable or fear they could violate disability-related laws or regulations if they do so. \nIn this webinar\, a panel of HR experts will share effective strategies people managers can use to support and empower employees with disabilities and confidently engage in coaching and performance dialogues. Topics to be discussed include: \n\nThe importance of regular coaching and feedback for employees with disabilities;\nHow to address performance concerns when you know or suspect that an employee has a disability;\nHow to ensure that people with disabilities are not unfairly disadvantaged in the process of performance appraisal and development;\nAnd how coaching and effective performance management can lead to better employee engagement and retention outcomes.

SUMMARY:Designing for Every User- Neurodiversity in the Workplace
DESCRIPTION:About this event\n\n\nSpeaker: Dr Sally Augustin \nHow we process the sensory information we collect from the world around us has a dramatic effect on how we think and behave\, whether we are successful in our professional endeavors or not. Some humans process the inputs available to them in ways that differ from the way that many others do and that can meaningfully affect their performance and wellbeing at work. \nThe goal of this session is not to discuss designing for any sort of disability but to review designing to support individuals who process information in ways that vary from the majority. \nPotential at-work sensory processing differences with reasonable design-related solutions will be discussed. These include atypical sensory channel operation (for instance deafness or being hard-of-hearing)\, deferentially sensitive processing (as experienced by highly sensitive people\, for example)\, being on the autism spectrum\, having ADHD\, being dyslexic\, and personality- and professional-training based differences in responses to design.
