LEADING DISABILITY EMPLOYER SEAL
The NOD Leading Disability Employer Seal™ is a public recognition applauding organizations that are leading the way in disability inclusion and tapping into the many benefits of hiring talent with disabilities, including high rates of productivity and dedication, and greater employee engagement across the workforce.
2018 LEADING DISABILITY EMPLOYERS
ABOUT WINNING THE SEAL
The Leading Disability Employer Seal is awarded based on performance on the Disability Employment Tracker™ — NOD’s free and confidential benchmarking survey.
METHODOLOGY
While the Tracker is entirely confidential, organizations may opt to be considered for the Leading Disability Employer Seal. Responses are scored, taking into account both disability employment practices and performance. Scoring prioritizes practices that are associated with increased disability employment outcomes over time, in addition to current performance in disability employment. Respondents also receive points based on the percentage of people with disabilities in their workforce.
Celebratory Dinner
The winning organizations were announced at NOD’s Corporate Leadership Council Annual Forum, New Frontiers in Disability Employment, which featured special guests, CSI actor Robert David Hall, Northrop Grumman CEO Wesley Bush, DiversityInc CEO Luke Visconti and NOD Chairman Gov. Tom Ridge. The event was hosted by national partners, Northrop Grumman and PwC, with sponsorship support from Kaiser Permanente.
