HIRING THE RIGHT PERSON
Evolve Your Workforce – Hire A Person With A Disability
Myth - Hiring people with disability will cost me money
•Fact - Businesses can qualify for up to $7,400 in federal tax credits when hiring people with disability.
Myth - Hiring disabled workers increases workers compensation insurance rates
•Fact - Insurance rates are based solely on the relative hazards of the operation and the organization's accident experience, not on whether an employer has hired workers with disabilities.
Myth - Providing accommodations for people with disabilities is expensive
•Fact – For the majority of workers with disabilities who do need some sort of special equipment or accommodation, 56% of these cost less than $600, with many costing nothing at all.
Myth - Employees with disabilities have a higher absentee rate than
employees without disabilities
•Fact - Studies by firms such as DuPont show that employees with disabilities are not absent any more than employees without disabilities.
