The U.S. Department of Labor has recently launched the Competitive Integrated Employment (CIE) Transformation Hub. This valuable resource offers practical guidance, policy information, and best practices to help employers successfully integrate job seekers with disabilities into their workforce.

What is Competitive Integrated Employment?

Competitive integrated employment means individuals with disabilities are employed in regular jobs alongside people without disabilities, earning competitive wages.

How can the Hub help employers?

The hub offers a wealth of resources to support employers in creating inclusive workplaces, including:

  • Understanding and implementing reasonable accommodations
  • Building a supportive and inclusive company culture
  • Addressing the specific needs of different disability groups
  • Meeting federal compliance requirements

At iDisability, we firmly believe in fostering competitive employment opportunities that empower people with disabilities to thrive alongside their peers. Our training programs can complement the resources offered by the CIE Transformation Hub, helping employers create a truly inclusive workplace culture. By combining our expertise with the Hub’s resources, employers can create a diverse culture of belonging.

Schedule an appointment with us to explore how iDisability can support your organization in building a culture of inclusion that goes beyond compliance.
