درباره این اپیزود
In this episode, Sarah is joined by Jacob Hill to explore why businesses should rethink how they approach hiring people with convictions.
This honest and practical conversation challenges common misconceptions about risk, trust, and employability. Jacob shares why inclusive recruitment isn’t just a moral argument, it’s a commercial one, and how giving people a second chance can strengthen teams, improve retention, and create real social impact.
In this episode, we discuss:
▪ The stigma people with convictions face when applying for work
▪ Why employment is one of the biggest drivers of reducing reoffending
▪ The business case for inclusive recruitment
▪ What employers get wrong about risk
▪ How organisations can create the right support structures internally
This episode is for leaders, HR professionals, procurement teams, and social value practitioners who want to move beyond policy statements and take meaningful action.
