Abstract:

This report explores how businesses and employers can make meaningful and sustainable employment possible for people with disability. The research selected nine disability employment programs—from Austria, Germany, the United Kingdom, and the United States of America—on the basis of their international commendation. The characteristics which drove success of these programs were determined by in-depth interviews with key figures as well as interviews with employees and analysis of inhouse reports and data. The five key areas critical to the success of these programs, and the five corresponding recommendations for future programs and employers, are articulated.
