An employer has obligations under the Human Rights
Code to accommodate an individual with disabilities
in the workplace. Where an employer can demonstrate
that the cost of an accommodation would create financial
hardship, financial assistance from the Employment Supports
Program may be negotiated.
As an employer you can reap important benefits through
access to support in hiring people with disabilities.
People with disabilities are often especially ready,
willing and able to make significant contributions
to your organization. With supports and creative thinking,
solutions can be found to address disability-related
barriers to employment and to ensure that people with
disabilities are included as a valuable resource in
the workplace. |
