SINGAPORE: Persons with disabilities are as productive as their able—bodied counterparts, and companies should look to hire them as a way of of getting around the tight labour market.
This, according to one such employer, fast food chain KFC, which was honoured on Friday night for hiring and retaining employees with disabilities.
Among the 120 employees at the KFC and Pizza Hut Customer Service Centre in Toa Payoh, more than 20 are persons with disabilities.
Michael Gian, CEO of Kentucky Fried Chicken Management and Pizza Hut Singapore, said: "Persons with disabilities (PWDs) are very hardworking, very dedicated. In no way are they less productive than their able—bodied colleagues. Once they go through the proper training, they’ll gain the confidence.
Would you want to have to worry about something like this? Although better for the disabled, if you are protected upon disability, don't worry about having to fight for a position in the industry.
Be Protected!
