Benefits Of Disability In The Workplace
A recent Accenture four-year study found that companies that fully embrace disability inclusion had 28% higher revenue, double their net income and a 30 percent higher profit margin than those that didn’t. This makes disability in the workplace a huge advantage for businesses. Let Changing Paces take your organization from job vacancy to increased profitability!
