This Disability Employment Awareness Month, we’re celebrating our business community for recognizing that #InclusionWorks.
Businesses that hire people with disabilities are the first to say this has made their teams stronger and enriched their company culture. Plus, there’s a direct boost to the bottom line.
However, we still have a long way to go. As INAPSE (Indiana Association for Persons in Supported Employment) notes, “Access to jobs with competitive wages is essential if citizens with disabilities are to avoid lives of poverty, dependence and isolation.”
The unemployment rate for people with disabilities is over 70%. That’s completely unacceptable. Businesses are depriving their companies of talented employees by not tapping into this human resource pool. And of course, people with disabilities aren’t getting the opportunity they need to pursue a career path that is personally fulfilling and financially stabilizing.
All employees, regardless of ability, require support to succeed on the job. Workers with disabilities are no different. That’s where Noble can help. Tell us your human resource needs, and we will help you find the right person for the job. And then we will work with you to ensure that your new hire learns and understands what they need to do to succeed.
As INAPSE states, we all win when our citizens, regardless of disability, have the right to pursue the full range of available employment opportunities, and to earn a living wage in a job of their choosing, based on their talents, skills and interests.
So contact Noble today, and we will show you #InclusionWorks.
