This Autism Acceptance Month, we spoke to Ian Kenworthy. Ian is a People Operations Administrator who joined TalkTalk via the Employ Autism programme, which was created alongside TalkTalk’s long-standing charity partner Ambitious About Autism. He tells guest presenter Kacee how the role was recommended to him and the reasons why he chose TalkTalk - due to the inclusive culture.
Employ Autism is programme providing a 6-month placement within the business, which includes various other layers of support including workshops and regular check ins. There are currently five interns working at TalkTalk on the programme and employees managing the interns received training prior to the onboarding to ensure the right support and opportunities were in place for every individual.
