Employers

Diversity and inclusion in the workplace are key to improved morale, creative thinking, and innovation. ResourceAbilities can help employers simplify their hiring decisions.

Though employers have specific needs, the common link is that employers are looking to hire people who bring value to their business, whether that is through increased knowledge and skills, community recognition, or profitability. By hiring persons with disabilities there is often an immediate and direct impact on workplace culture.

For example:

An inclusive culture is attractive to other talent pools

Motivated, engaged employees and improved morale

Lower staff turnover

Enhanced brand (customers view the company more positively)

Increased productivity, profit, innovation, and safety

Employers can use the Employment Counselling and Services program as a resource to explore innovative ideas about utilizing an individual's skills and abilities.
