National AccessAbility Week is here, and it's our chance to shine a spotlight on the importance of accessibility and inclusion for all in our communities and workplaces. 

Did you know that among those aged 25-64 years old, 50% of persons with disabilities are employed, compared to 80% of those without disabilities? We need to bridge this gap and create more opportunities for everyone to participate meaningfully.

Among those with disabilities aged 25-64 years old who were not employed and not currently in school, 39% had the potential to work. Employed persons with disabilities still have incomes that fall short of those without disabilities.

According to a Statistics Canada report,  more than one-third of employees with disabilities aged 25-64 years required at least one type of workplace accommodation. Flexible work arrangements, workstation modifications, and human or technical supports are common accommodations provided. 

Of those who required accommodations: 59% had all of their needs met, 19% had some of their needs met, and 21% has none of their needs met. We must strive for full accessibility and inclusion in every workplace.

It’s time to #EndAbleism and create a workplace where disabilities belong.
