Collecting data on persons with disabilities in the workplace is important to help understand what they need to thrive and succeed, without barriers. Often, the challenge employers face when collecting data, is the lack of employee willingness to share their information. This highlights the importance of companies ensuring their culture is safe and employees feel comfortable when sharing their identities. Speakers will discuss the various steps companies can take to measure their progress on disability inclusion and to ensure their workplace is creating a culture of trust and safety.
