Disability Inclusion: The Payoff | Why Hiring People with Disabilities Drives Real Results

In this video, we unpack the eye-opening insights from the 2024 Disability Equality Index — showing how disability inclusion is far more than good ethics… it’s good business.

Did you know companies that lead in disability inclusion earn 1.6× more revenue and 2.6× more net income than their peers? That’s not coincidence — that’s the power of an inclusive workplace where everyone belongs and contributes.

We’ll walk through:
✅ The incredible rise in disability-focused employee resource groups (ERGs) — now found in 93% of top companies
✅ How digital accessibility has jumped from 44% to 71%, opening doors for both employees and customers
✅ Why centralized accommodation funds and proactive hiring practices are game changers
✅ The five key actions every organization can take right now to build a culture of belonging
✅ How this global movement is reshaping workplaces in Brazil, Canada, the UK, and beyond

Whether you’re a parent or caregiver of an adult with disabilities hoping for real inclusion… or an employer wanting to strengthen your workforce and bottom line, this video will show how inclusion transforms lives and profits.

Let’s move beyond compliance — and into compassion, innovation, and performance.
