Safe Space

75% of the workforce with a disability has a disability that is not visible to others at first glance. For these employees, the question arises as to whether to disclose their disability at work. This decision presents a dilemma: while disclosure enables individual accommodations and can contribute to a more authentic and open working environment, also it also comes with fears of discrimination and rejection. 
SafeSpace is a digital tool designed to support this decision-making process. The tool anonymously collects and analyses evidence-based factors that influence disclosure, helping individuals to weigh different factors. At the same time, it provides helpful, tailored information based on each individual’s situation. Companies benefit from aggregated feedback and receive specific recommendations for action to promote an open, supportive corporate culture.
