Employers

Employers should support the Disability Inclusion Advantage for several reasons, including business benefits such as: increased profitability and employee engagement, legal compliance with disability discrimination laws, fulfilling corporate social responsibility, attracting and retaining talent, and improving customer satisfaction.

The Disability Inclusion Advantage

Promoting disability inclusion can help create an inclusive workplace culture that values diversity, attracts a wider range of employees, and expands the pool of qualified candidates. Overall, supporting disability inclusion can provide significant benefits to employers and help reduce discrimination against people with disabilities.

Business Benefits

Disability inclusion can provide clear business benefits, such as increased profitability, productivity, innovation, employee engagement, as well as lower turnover rates.

Corporate Social Responsibility

By creating a workplace that values diversity and promotes accessibility, employers can demonstrate their commitment to social justice and help to reduce discrimination against people with disabilities.

Customer Satisfaction

Promoting disability inclusion can improve customer satisfaction and loyalty, as people with disabilities make up a large and growing market segment.

I had the privilege of collaborating with The Hamilton Disability Employment Network (HDEN) on their job fair last year 2022, and it was an incredibly positive experience. Their dedication to inclusive employment and effective partnership with the community was truly commendable, leading to the successful securing of meaningful employment opportunities for people with disabilities.
