Forbes shares disability inclusion and neurodiversity accommodations can and should be win/win thinking in our workplaces. Ludmila Praslova, Ph.D., SHRM-SCP, Âû 👉 How work gets done may be in different forms. Some may need an accommodation and others may not. And that's ok. It doesn't mean the person without the accommodation loses out. 👉 Success is not a zero sum game. If everyone is successful, the organization is successful. 👉 Accommodations and flexibility in the workplace make our workplaces better for everyone. #BetterWorkplaces #HumanResources #DisabilityInclusion ID: A group of happy employees sitting in front of a large table.

Today, we honor our team members who are celebrating anniversaries this month! Together, they bring us an impressive 129 years of service and experience! Their hard work and dedication have been vital to our success, and we’re genuinely grateful for everything they do. Here’s to many more years together!
What a great day in NH! Our ME and NH management teams came together for a fantastic professional and personal growth day. We delved into critical identifiers of abuse and explored steps to keep those we love and support safe. After that, we got hands-on with a short self-defense class to empower ourselves! We wrapped up the day with some technology training. We left feeling energized and excited about all we learned! Thank you to Pat's Peak, Lorene Reagan RN, MS, and Eric Menard's Complete Martial Arts Academy for making our day totally awesome!

As we kick off Disability Employment Awareness Month we want to share some best practices AND some common pitfalls to avoid. Best Practices: 👉 Provide tools and resources for employees with disabilities 👉 Conduct training. Find your pain points and address them. 👉 Engage your employee resource group. 👉 Update policies and procedures 👉 Communicate progress. Tell your employees what has been accomplished since last year. Avoid these pitfalls: 🛑 Do nothing. Employees will notice if you do nothing. 🛑 Don't do a self id campaign along with open enrollment. 🛑 Don't have legal drive your disability initiative. It will feel compliance focused. 🛑 Don't conduct simulations where activities try to raise awareness about a disability by "trying it on". 🛑 Don't over commit. Be clear about what you will accomplish but don't oversell it. #DisabledAndCapable #HumanResources #Innovation https://lnkd.in/dBk6h2xS
