- American companies are short of workers. There are 9.6 million unemployed, working-age people with disabilities who would prefer to be working. You are probably reading this because, like most other companies in America, your company can’t afford to ignore a poorly-tapped labor pool of 9.6 million willing workers. The good news is that there really are 9.6 million unemployed Americans who want jobs. The bad news is that recruiting them isn’t all that easy – particularly finding the ones with the right skills for your job openings.Companies that are proactive about recruiting people with disabilities, companies that proactively do “targeted” recruiting, find that this minority group is quite different from others that they have targeted in the past. Unlike racial and ethnic minorities, people with disabilities are more difficult to target. They do not as readily congregate in groups. With few exceptions, you are unlikely to find high concentrations of people with disabilities in particular neighborhoods, churches, cultural organizations, etc. Similarly, particularly on a local level, there are few media sources (magazines, TV programs, radio shows, etc.) that effectively reach a broad audience within the disability community.Given that, how can your company develop a strategic recruiting program that will enable you to successfully attract applicants with disabilities? A truly successful recruiting program is going to be a multi-faceted one. While there isn’t a proscribed “recipe for success”, there are many ingredients that are typically a part of successful programs – and we will describe them here. Which ones you choose to use (and what proportions you choose to use them in) will be determined by your own resources, commitment and creative planning!
