October is National Disability Employment Awareness Month, and the Postal Service is joining organizations across the nation to recognize the contributions and talents of employees with disabilities and to raise awareness about disability employment.
The theme for this year’s campaign is “The Right Talent, Right Now.” You can learn more on the U.S. Department of Labor site’s National Disability Employment Awareness Month page, which has a downloadable poster and other materials, as well as a history of National Disability Employment Awareness Month.
The Postal Service’s National Disability Program and Reasonable Accommodation Blue pages also contain information on disability employment awareness and reasonable accommodation resources, including stand-up talks, policy and procedure links, and American Sign Language (ASL) instructional videos.
