Emile Tompa is a one-of-a-kind economist. He is incredibly passionate about inclusivity in hiring policies and is a Senior Scientist at Institute for Work & Health.
Ask him what the one thing is that organisations can do to be more inclusive towards people with disabilities and he quips “reduce stigma”.
How do you build a business case for bringing in more inclusive hiring policies? What are the challenges that one faces and how do we ensure that disability hiring policies serve those who are disabled and set them up for success?
