What a record can say

Active
The level is current. The record shows until when, and links to the certificate.
Conditional
The level is current, with conditions the organisation must meet by the date shown. If they are not met in time, the record is suspended.
Suspended
An annual confirmation is more than 30 days late, or the conditions of the award were not met in time. The level is not current until this is put right.
Replaced
A higher Difability level replaced this one. The record links to the record that replaced it.
Expired
The level was held until the date shown and was not renewed.
Membership ended
The organisation’s membership ended on the date shown.
Withdrawn
Difability withdrew the level on the date shown, for the reason shown.
Removed
The record was removed from the register. Its number is never reused.

What the levels mean

Difability Member
Free membership, not an assessment. It confirms that the organisation’s identity is verified, that the person acting for it is authorised to do so, and that it has accepted the Difability Commitment.
Difability Recognised
Assessed recognition for one clearly defined part of the organisation: a practice, service, product, website, location, recruitment process, customer journey, procurement pathway or opportunity programme. It is not a smaller version of organisation-wide certification.
Difability Certified
The first organisation-wide assessed status. It confirms that the organisation meets the Difability Standard across all six pillars, with any covered entities and limitations stated.
Difability Accredited
Sustained compliance with the Difability Standard across the defined assessment period, with mature governance and continuing measurable outcomes.
Difability Leader
Leadership in a sector: innovation and substantial opportunity creation, with outcomes supported by independent evidence.
Difability Global Champion
Verified international or cross-sector impact, led locally by people with lived experience in the countries or communities concerned.
