Making Disability Part of the Equity Equation

October is National Disability Employment Awareness Month (NDEAM). The purpose of NDEAM is to educate about disability employment issues and celebrate the many and varied contributions of America’s workers with disabilities. Held annually, this year’s theme is “Disability: Part of the Equity Equation.”

According to a recent report by the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics, persons with disabilities are much more likely to face challenges in the labor market than those with no disabilities. WR strives to be part of the change by removing barriers to employment and increasing access to opportunities for individuals with disabilities.
