Welcome to
www.ask-nimbus.com “...
the law is by no means clear - and is unlikely to be so for some years to
come ... companies that take a proactive approach fare better than those that
bury their heads in the sand and wait to see whether they will be on the
wrong end of a writ”

The ‘Disability in the
Workplace’ Professionals Forum
At the moment
anybody can read messages on the forum but you need to be a member to post
(free and easy - you just need a google account which takes 2 mins to set
up). If members decide they would like a more secure forum this can be
arranged. |

The Equality Bill 2010 is going to see the launch
of a new piece of equality legislation designed to 'harmonise' all of the
separate equality legislation which has been in place over the years. The
Equality Bill is working it's way through parliament as we speak and it's expected
to have quite a profound impact on businesses. In preparation for the Bill
becoming law Nimbus is preparing a briefing which will give an overview of
the equality bill and a more in depth look at your obligations around
disability which has it's own very special requirements as opposed to other
equality strands. At this stage we're asking
organisations to register their interest in attending and what they'd like to
see included so that we can gauge the content and delivery. The training will
be later in the year and if you do book on a session, your registered
interest will give you a priority booking and a discount on the full cost.
We'll also add you to a separate electronic mailing list to receive updates
on the progress of the bill. To register interest please
email us via this
link or get in touch by any of our other contact methods |

New Premises / Website Welcome to the new look ask-nimbus.com. To celebrate our move to Pride Park we thought we'd have a bit of a 'spring clean' and provide you with a cleaner, crisper version of the website. You will still be able to find out about our fantastic range of training sessions and auditing services via these pages, sign up for the newsletter or request a free no obligation written quote. Our move to Pride Park has also meant that we have brand new contact details, but most excitingly a brand new, custom designed training / meeting room. The room obviously features all of the accessibility features you would expect for an organisation such as ours, but we've designed it with comfort in mind. The room is available for rent so if
you're looking for an accessible meeting venue don't look any further: The
room comfortably seats 16 people in boardroom style – theatre style seating
easily fits 30. Facilities
include: Hot Drinks Ceiling Mounted Projector
PC / Laptop Telephone access and dedicated incoming line Internet Access Air Conditioning Executive Seating Integrated Loop System Accessible Entrances and Facilities Flip Charts, pens and Paper Whiteboards and Pens Car Parking Fax and Photocopying facilities Potential for variety of layouts Abundant Natural Light |
