A Staffing Solution for Your Business: SBOT 2022 Event

The Surrey Board of Trade, in partnership with Presidents Group, encouraged businesses to attend this virtual event as an option to help with staffing needs.

What do you think of when you hear the word disability in the workplace? Disabilities can be visible or invisible, but we all know someone who has a disability. Reports estimate one in five Canadians has a disability.

For too long, organizations focused on their outputs and lacked the oversight to build a more inclusive workplace. However, now more than ever, organizations realize that by not employing people with disabilities, they are missing out on a dynamic, talented, bold, and innovative workforce. A healthy workplace reflects its community.

You will hear about inclusive workplaces, legal requirements, correct terminology, and how pursuing diversity and inclusion will give you a competitive advantage and broader consumer reach.

Speakers:

Dan Coulter, MLA and Parliamentary Secretary for Accessibility.

Marco Pasqua, Inspirational Speaker, Accessibility Consultant and Entrepreneur

Yat Li, Senior Accessibility Consultant, Presidents Group
