Forget the word “pity” — the numbers speak for themselves. Accenture analyzed 346 companies worldwide and found that companies that actively hire people with disabilities earn 1.6x more revenue, 2.6x more net profit, and 25% higher productivity.
Walgreens hired over 1,000 people with disabilities — 78% less absenteeism, 2x longer retention. SAP launched the Autism at Work program in 12 countries — 90% retention rate, contributing to company patents. And accommodation costs? 59% cost nothing at all!!!
Bangkok Metropolitan Administration, BMA 🇹🇭 sets an example for every organization — hiring 629 people with disabilities, with over 100 appointed as permanent civil servants. I truly admire this.
1.3 billion people with disabilities worldwide, with a combined spending power of over $13 trillion. The opportunity is right in front of you — just open the door.
Share this until every company hears it — give people with disabilities a chance, and the numbers will prove themselves!!!
