People with Disabilities in Good Jobs: Employment Success Stories (US Dept. of Labor)

There are eight “Good Jobs” principles—ranging from fair pay and benefits to organizational culture and job security—that create a universal framework for job quality. These principles fit neatly with two important pillars of disability employment that benefit everyone: competitive integrated employment, or CIE, and universal design. When employees with disabilities and other barriers to employment receive the right supports, they, along with their employers, thrive. Read real-life success stories from the ODEP-funded National Center on Leadership for the Employment and Economic Advancement of People with Disabilities (LEAD Center) that show the Good Jobs principles in action.
