Seldom are the words efficient and effective and government used in the same sentence. But the U.S. Department of Labor´s Office of Disability Employment Policy website proves there is always the exception to the rule. This website has an abundance of lists and tips and rules for helping employers locate qualified candidates with disabilities. And if you are looking for data to support a business case for hiring candidates with disabilities...they have that too.

As the growth of available labor slows, companies are increasingly challenged to design, develop, and implement staffing initiatives that tap into every possible candidate source. Candidates with disabilities are a solution to this labor shortage dilemma.

So take a look at their website ― our tax dollars put to good use.
