Description

Create a true culture of inclusion

Although progress has been made around equality for many marginalised groups, people with disabilities are still massively underrepresented in organisations’ Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion efforts. People with disabilities make up at least 15% of the population, yet they are still too often overlooked. Many people with disabilities are highly motivated, create fantastic work, and add tremendous value to organisations.

Disability Friendly is a clarion call to businesses around the world to realise the opportunities presented by employing people with disabilities. It explains the potential of disabled employees, how to create a culture of inclusion, and, in the process, help people with disabilities become proud contributors.

In this book, you’ll find:

Concrete strategies for redesigning work and its processes to embrace all contributing citizens
Ways to incorporate disability supports into a business’ diversity and inclusion practices and initiatives
Methods for reducing the massive cost associated with government disability support payments and repurposing these as investments in the human potential of people with disabilities

Ideal for executives, managers, and other business leaders, Disability Friendly will also earn a place in the libraries of Diversity and Inclusion and Human Resources professionals seeking to make an impact on their company and on behalf of a marginalised group.
