National Disability Employment Awareness Month (NDEAM) is observed throughout October, celebrating the contributions of employees with disabilities and promoting inclusive practices in workplaces. This year’s theme, “Access to Good Jobs for All,” emphasizes the importance of equal employment opportunities for People with Disabilities (PwD).
Key highlights include:
- Workforce Representation: People with disabilities represent 4.2% of the overall workforce and 3.6% of management positions at Top 50 companies.
- Disability Prevalence: 28.7% of Americans have some form of disability.
