Call 265-5374 to speak with our Employer Recruiter about hiring a skilled worker.
Business leaders are well aware of the shortage of skilled workers throughout Alberta and the positive impact quality employees create in terms of productivity in the workplace. Champions Career Centre can help companies access a significant but largely underutilized pool of quality talent and expertise: people with disabilities. The process for recruiting and hiring job seekers with disabilities is not any different from hiring and retaining people without disabilities. There are a number of compelling business reasons for incorporating individuals with disabilities into today's workplace.
People with disabilities represent a large consumer group with significant spending clout. It makes good business sense to include people with disabilities in today's workforce and consider their needs as customers.
Besides the benefits of skills and other contributions, employers will have a workforce that reflects society, and be well positioned when universal access and a variety of work options become standard practice.
The commitment to hiring persons with disabilities identifies your organization as a corporate leader in the workplace and as a community leader in society. Demonstrating social awareness within hiring practices also creates a positive image for your company as a progressive employer.
Business leaders are increasingly aware of the impact that organizational culture plays in building a successful business. As organizational culture reflects the values of a company, many are moving towards a more inclusive culture that promotes greater teamwork and employee involvement, more creativity and innovation, improved communications, better work/life balance, respect for employee interests and needs, on-going learning and continuous improvement and diversity. An inclusive work culture improves the morale of all employees, which in turn improves quality, productivity and service.
