As advisors and researchers, members of the ProAct Employment team examine elements in the equation of a successful employee and employer matchup. Personal interviews and observations of tasks, skills and interests in several work environments provide information for an objective analysis. The team works as a cohesive unit to find the best solution for each individual’s career interests, and the opportunities that are available.
Job candidates add value to the organizations that employ them. Companies and organizations that hire people with disabilities are able to show a commitment to workplace diversity and build community awareness about the value of such individuals in the workforce.
