Did you know that almost 80% of employees and business leaders who have a disability don’t fully disclose it. Reasons can include a perceived lack of organizational support, a lack of trust, the fact that some disabilities are not visible and therefore easy to hide and not wanting to be made to feel different. It’s time to #EndAbleism and create a workplace where disabilities belong. Some tips include: Seek support from ally employment organizations/agencies about best practices for hiring and creating diverse workplaces. Make it clear on your job postings that you are an employer who values diversity and recruits people with disabilities. Ensure people with disabilities have meaningful opportunities to advance and take leadership roles. Educate other staff in the workplace about disability, respectful language, and tools or strategies to help the whole team succeed. Learn more at deareverybody.ca/partners
