Who are we?
Network USP Inclusive is an employee network in the Utrecht Science Park. We are committed to helping employees with an (workplace) disability or (psychological) vulnerability*. Our aim is to address prejudice and promote inclusion. By increasing support for employees with a disability or vulnerability, we seek to strengthen their position within the organisations in the Utrecht Science Park. Be sure to watch the introduction video below or get to know our team.
A network for everyone
Our network is for everyone. Employees who are faced with an (occupational) disability or (mental) vulnerability, colleagues, managers and supervisors, professionals, and other interested people. Both for employees in the Utrecht Science Park (USP) and at the other locations of the organisations in the USP. We offer a safe environment for (work–related) activities for personal and professional development, but also recognition, acknowledgement, and information in the field of working with an (occupational) disability or (mental) vulnerability.
Our community
Our Teams-channel is a community where you can go for exchanging experiences, connecting with each other, tips, questions, and advice, among other things. Join our employee network and get access to our community. As a member of our network, you get priority in signing up for our activities.
Join as an ambassador or organisation
Does your organisation want to contribute to the visibility of Network USP Inclusive and stimulate awareness among employees? Or do you want to bring the employee network to the attention of influential parties within your organisation? Team up with us and share your knowledge to increase the inclusion in the Utrecht Science Park.
*With (workplace) disability or (psychological) vulnerability we mean, for example, physical, sensory, or mental vulnerability/disability, chronic condition, or neurodivergence. No term is perfect and all encompassing. We are aware that there are many different opinions on this matter, and that not everybody feels included. We have endeavoured to find the best fitting terminology.
