Top-down activities are just as- if not more- essential.
For one, SG Enable provides training to help employers and employees better connect with and connect PWDs at work, as well as to tailor its services to their specific demands.  ,
The firm’s CEO, Ms. Lee, explained that there is a portion of the factory where we blindfold members and instruct them to perform tasks or instruct them to sit in a chair and experience how challenging it might be to move about.
This encourages awareness and empathy for what people with disabilities are going through.
She urged employers to take the first step in order to remove myths about PWDs and to motivate their staff members to learn how to better market inclusivity at work.
For example, Mr Andrew Lim, who was born with a rare genetic eye condition called cylinder disease, works at a funding company which has an inclusivity team.
The team makes sure its employees are aware of how to help and provide PWD employees with a secure environment.  ,
Mr. Lim only has 10 % of his eyesight left, which could get worse if he chose not to be identified by his real name. But the , 28-year-old said he has never felt excluded or capable in the workplace.
Again, a coworker offered to assist him in ordering meals from a company meal, and quietly instructed him to place each product on the plate.  ,
” The hen was at 3pm, the corn was at 6pm, and the soy was placed at 9pm”, said Mr Lim. ” Nothing has done that for me before”.
The independent teacher, Ms. Tan, claimed that the main focus was on companies being more willing to hire PWDs. ” We need to get given a opportunity”, she said.
