On International Day of Persons with Disabilities, CCRW was proud to be featured on City News, highlighting the importance of closing the employment gap for Canadians with disabilities. This timely discussion centered around a groundbreaking report led by CCRW’s research team, which sheds light on the significant economic and financial benefits of hiring persons with disabilities.

The report reveals a staggering potential boost of $50 billion to Canada’s GDP if organizations take actionable steps to address the employment gap. Despite this, the findings underscore that many organizations are still not doing enough to tap into this diverse and talented workforce.

As we work toward a more inclusive workforce, this feature amplifies CCRW's commitment to advocating for meaningful employment opportunities for persons with disabilities and highlights the value of inclusive hiring practices.
