Globally, there are over one billion people with disabilities. They are now more active in our society than ever before. Yet employment rates are low and many barriers to work still exist. An increasing number of companies are becoming aware of the potential people with disabilities bring to the workplace. Not only do people with disabilities constitute a large untapped source of talent, but companies have a lot to benefit from diverse workforces.
The European Union Chamber of Commerce in China is delighted to welcome you to a seminar where top voices in the disability inclusion landscape in China will share with participants best practices to start the journey of disability inclusion in the workplace and the legalities to take into consideration.
