Workplace Disability Accessibility and Accommodation: The Role of HR Professionals
1 Hour
The employment rate of people with disabilities globally is 44%, compared with 75% for people without disabilities. In a US study, few organizations (25%) reported having explicit organizational goals related to the recruitment and hiring of people with disabilities. Employers around the globe are beginning to acknowledge that people with disabilities make reliable and productive employees, and that having a diverse workforce inclusive of those with a disability makes for a sound business case. The accessibility of employment processes and accommodations for individuals with disabilities needing adjustments to obtain or retain employment are critical to address these employment disparities. For many organizations, human resources professionals are the gateway into employment. This webinar will provide insights in to the role of HR professionals in disability accessibility and accommodation.
