Barrier-free Recruitment

The secrets of inclusive recruitment

International surveys have shown that 92% of customers prefer companies that employ people with disability. At the same time, inclusive and diverse working environments contribute to overall productivity growth; they are two times more likely to achieve or exceed their economic goals, six times more likely to be innovative, and six times more likely to effectively anticipate change. It is no coincidence that diverse groups are more innovative, participatory, and creative.

In our effort to strengthen the diverse profile of your company, we implement, in collaboration with Career Sign*, an inclusive recruitment seminar addressed to your HR department. Qualified specialists provide consulting services to facilitate a barrier-free career for all.
