This Conversation is part of Remarkable Insights.
There is a significant opportunity to leverage technological innovation to drive an inclusive future. But who is left behind as technology transforms the society around us?
How might we use Remarkable Insights to create an inclusive now?
Did you know that in Australia 48% of working age (aged 15-64) people with disability are employed compared with 80% of people without disability?1
The inequality of these statistics is even more shocking when compared to studies that prove the strong benefits of hiring people with disability, from more loyal employees and customers to a richer pool of talent, to greater product designs, the list goes on.
So when thinking beyond the future of work improving employment participation rates for people with disabilities in today’s labor force is a critical global issue.
Another particularly critical part of this issue is that while the world redefines a “new normal” we’re presented with an opportunity to collaborate with disability-led innovators to help transform the workforce and in turn, pave the way for a more inclusive society.
Join us for the return of our Remarkable Insights conversations as a panel of experts discuss how they’re solving the disability unemployment crisis, harnessing technology to create more meaningful work and advocating for true action to promote enabling work environments.
