The Kubera Principle

The Book That Will Change the World

Finding work and having a disability is hard.

No like, it’s really hard.

In this episode, Susan talks to Phat Ngo, Employment Service Manager for SCIA’s EmployAbility Service and Dominika Jachym, EmployAbility’s Employment Coach about the obvious misconceptions of disability and employment, how that feeds into the hesitation a lot of employers have when hiring someone with a disability, how employers can better themselves to be a more inclusive workplace, help people with disabilities climb the career ladder and how COVID has forced people to start looking at what employment means in a different light.
