This paper recommends five occupational rights outlining occupational good practice. These rights aim to ensure that reasonable adjustments are made to support people with learning disabilities to engage in occupations that matter to them. The occupational rights are intended to be a practical resource to support people with learning disabilities to live fulfilled lives; and families, carers, staff, providers, professionals, and commissioners to support them to do this. The occupational rights are suggested for use to identify what good occupational engagement looks like and to recognise when it is happening. It also highlights when and how to gain specialist support to enable and promote occupation in people’s lives. An easy read version of this report is also available.
