Supported Business
Remploy provides various products and services through 'Enterprise Businesses'. If a United Kingdom public body procures these products or services from a Remploy business, they are permitted to take advantage of the 2006 Public Contracts Regulations (Regulation 7). These regulations restrict the tendering process for goods or services to supported businesses, which are defined as those where over 50% of employees are disabled.
UK Government guidance is that every public body should reserve at least one contract for supported businesses. In this way, public bodies can fulfil their corporate social responsibility objectives by helping more disabled people into work.
