DEI Best Practices Collection
Each year, the Disability Equality Index (DEI) helps capture best practices from top-scoring companies that receive the recognition Best Places to Work for Disability Inclusion™. These best practices enable a culture of inclusion that promotes increased self-identification, employees feeling truly welcomed to be their authentic selves, and innovation sparked by disability inclusion being built into participating companies’ products and services.
In order to share more practices to help businesses learn from each other, Disability:IN has produced the Best Practices Collection, a new resource of over 170 practices as reported by DEI participating companies and captured through our consulting and conference experiences. This new collection is a compilation that showcases leading examples and promising practices and is designed for all companies – from the company that is just starting their disability inclusion journey to leading practitioners. The collection also includes the ability to sort via industry.
2021 Disability Equality Index Report
The Disability Equality Index (DEI), a joint initiative with the American Association of People with Disabilities, is a benchmarking tool that provides an objective score and roadmap on disability inclusion policies and practices. Over the seven-year history of the DEI, one thing is undeniably clear: disability inclusion and equality is good business. Being a disability-inclusive employer is good for recruitment, retention, engagement, and — ultimately — the bottom line.
What began as largely U.S. efforts to create disability-inclusive workplaces is now a much larger conversation. In a global marketplace, equality knows no borders. In 2020, 75% of participating DEI companies have operations outside of the U.S.
