We are thrilled to announce that CCRW was recently featured on the Kelly and Company Podcast! This exciting opportunity highlighted the groundbreaking work CCRW is doing to support Canadians with disabilities in the workforce and emphasized the critical insights from our latest Trends Reports.

During the podcast, CCRW’s Trends Reports were at the forefront of the discussion, particularly one of our latest installments that underscores the economic value of hiring people with disabilities. The report estimates that increasing the inclusion of Canadians with disabilities in the workforce could result in a staggering $50 billion boost to Canada’s GDP. This compelling statistic serves as a reminder of the immense potential and benefits of building inclusive workplaces across the country.

This podcast feature aligns with the broader national conversation on the economic advantages of hiring inclusively, as discussed in The Toronto Star’s recent article, "Hiring People with Disabilities is Good for Business: Here’s How Companies Benefit". The article echoes CCRW’s findings and explores how businesses across Canada are thriving by prioritizing accessibility and inclusivity in their hiring practices.

As CCRW continues to advocate for a more inclusive workforce, we are proud to contribute to these important conversations and provide data-driven insights that empower employers and policymakers alike. Listen to the Kelly and Company Podcast to hear more about our mission, our reports, and how we’re working to transform workplaces nationwide.
