Originally hired for our Janitorial team, our team spotted Kendra Bailey's background and suggested shifting to a workforce training role. Kendra's now an Employee Success Coach. Inclusion and support for people with disabilities in the workplace leads to stronger teams. This National Disability Employment Month we're sharing example and resources to strengthen your workplace. Kendra says, "Do the things you're scared of. You never know what's going to happen on the other side of it, and whose lives you may change." Watch Kendra's Video by SourceAmerica below. [ ID: Kendra is seated and facing the camera at an angle.

It's Equal Pay Day! Did you know women earn 84 cents for every dollar men make — and sometimes less? You can advocate raising awareness around the impact of pay inequities and supporting those who support narrowing the gap on this and many other issues important to women and families. Make sure you are registered to vote and do it! Act now! https://loom.ly/sCjsGVw Join us today and demand Congress take action to close the gender pay gap by passing needed legislation - because in 2024, women working in the United States should not earn less than men. The Paycheck Fairness Act (S.728 / H.R.17) would strengthen the Equal Pay Act of 1963 by protecting workers from retaliation for discussing pay, banning the use of prior salary history to set wages, codifying pay data collection, and closing critical loopholes that allow employers to pay workers unfairly. #genderwagegap #equalpayday #congress #actnow #paycheckfairnessact #womenandfamily #YWomenVote #TowardEquality #GOTV #WomenAreVoting #YWCA #YWCASHR #EliminateRacism #EmpowerWomen #YWCAIsOnAMission

February 6, 2024 BPIAA Counnterpoint | Equal Opportunity is The Law of The Land Who disagrees with a commitment to equal opportunity for all based on merit system principles, the law, and equal employment opportunities for all, also the law? Below is from a 2011 Executive Order! Section 1. Policy. Our Nation derives strength from the diversity of its population and from its commitment to equal opportunity for all. We are at our best when we draw on the talents of all parts of our society, and our greatest accomplishments are achieved when diverse perspectives are brought to bear to overcome our greatest challenges. A commitment to equal opportunity, diversity, and inclusion is critical for the Federal Government as an employer. By law, the Federal Government's recruitment policies should "endeavor to achieve a work force from all segments of society." (5 U.S.C. 2301(b)(1)). All this DEI bashing is silly, as perceived “unqualified” minorities are not being put at the front of the line or displacing non-minorities perceived as”more qualified” than other similarly situated persons or groups; and moreover, disrespects the real “civil rights” struggle in this country to dismantle Jim Crow, end segregation, and refute Plessy v Ferguson and the Dred Scott decision!

Over the past few years, we have seen an increase in discussions around supporting people over 50 into work. Now we need to understand the impact this may have had on your role and any challenges or changes to provision. We are asking providers of support to complete this short survey to ensure that the experiences of those delivering support are central in both our work and the wider conversations had around supporting people in their 50s, 60s and beyond. Access the survey here: https://lnkd.in/esA9nWEJ #Ageing #OlderPeople #AgeingSociety #Ageism #AgeingPopulation

Love this. Real Impact at Scale. This initiative supports women’s safety in the workplace… who is going to protect her at home or if she doesn’t have the financial independence to work? Every step forward is something to be celebrated but there is so much more required. The The DV Collective support over 120 domestic violence services. Many of these are case workers who support women create safe exit plans, help her find safe housing, connect her with material aid, connect her with legal services to protect her and her children… everyday we hear from these services there are more and more women coming through the door or phoning and they just can not help them.. Imagine building up the courage to leave and the door is slammed in your face as they are too busy or you are put on a waitlist…YOU do not have time to wait on a list. This was my experience. Everyday we hear from case workers how they are trying to take on more women but just can’t. We need more funding to provide more case workers. If the government could increase funding for head count across Australia maybe the woman we see every day on the news may have been able to connect with the services they needed. The DV Collective collects data from domestic and family violence agencies across Australia and after housing this will be our second focus. Making sure EVERY woman in Australia can connect to a case worker to access the support she needs. #needbasedinvesting #dvcollective
We are excited! 😀 There will shortly be a Working Women’s Centre (WWC) near you…The Federal Government has provided increased funding to existing WWC’s and funding to establish a WWC in each state and territory including a national peak body. This is BIG after years and enormous effort by many- well done! Read more in the link below and the services that will be implementing this. https://lnkd.in/gK46q3KX
