The Solution?
On the opportunity that I chose, disabilities in the workplace, the solution I came up with is a service.
A service in which all employers, regardless of status or company achievement, partake in a type of training or course that educates them and trains them to deal with different types of people that could be employed there, including different ranges of individuals with disabilities.
This service would be mandatory in all workplaces and geared towards the employers, or all the individuals on the leadership level like department managers, hiring, and big bosses.
What this training would entail is the different scenarios and cases that employers, and employees can come across with different individuals of different abilities. For example, training on how to interact with potential employees with Autism, education on what it means to be on the spectrum, and education to know that they have many individual capabilities and can actually bring a lot to the table at the work place.
There is more to expand on this bus initially, this is how I plan to solve this gap between diverse populations and their employment in the workplace and how to teach acceptance and adjustability across all environments, as it should be in the work field.
Hey Julissa, this is great idea and should be implemented in every workplace. I agree that the service should be mandatory in all workplaces and geared towards the employers. The gap between individuals with disabilities and people without, in the workplace, is too large and needs to be reduced. People should be able to adjust and accept any environment in a workplace.
