What the petition asks
The government are cutting funding to services which may help people with disabilities find & stay in work. If by law companies allocated a set quota of positions which were home based specifically for the disabled (where viable) many disabled people would have the opportunity to work.
Report of difficulties disabled people can face, a quota of home based positions from companies could eliminate some issues faced and help disabled people find suitable work.
