INDIANAPOLIS–(BUSINESS WIRE)–The following is an opinion editorial provided by Jeffrey Mittman, President, NAEPB:<\/i>\n<\/p>\n

<\/a><\/p>\n

\nThe Great Resignation, described in the Harvard Business Review as \u201can unprecedented mass exit from the workforce,\u201d<\/a> saw 47 million Americans<\/a> leave their jobs in search of greener pastures. We heard about the ensuing imbalance and how labor shortages rattled almost every sector of our economy.\n<\/p>\n

\nThe gaps left may be ones that can be filled by a population too often overlooked \u2013 people with disabilities. As business leaders across the country determine how to staff up, I challenge them to look in places they might have missed in the past.\n<\/p>\n

\nNew data from the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics shows that in 2021 only 19% of Americans with a disability had jobs. I am pleased to see that the number, although still low, rose to 21% in 2022. Juxtapose that with the employment rate of people without a disability of 65.4 in 2022, there is still an incredibly wide gap. While there is growth, disability unemployment rates are still unacceptably high, and it is unclear why these individuals aren\u2019t being hired.\n<\/p>\n

\nI serve as the president of the National Association for the Employment of People Who Are Blind. I also work as the president and CEO of Bosma Enterprises. Our business, through its social enterprise model, provides vital products and services to the government and private industry. We, like other NAEPB member organizations across the country, have integrated people who are blind at all levels of our companies with great success. At Bosma, we boast nearly 100 percent accuracy in order entry, fulfillment, and on time delivery. This performance isn\u2019t exclusive to Bosma, it happens nationwide at other NAPEB organizations. We have decades of experience resulting in thousands of high-quality job creation at all levels, from entry level to executive.\n<\/p>\n

\nThe critical point I want to make for employers around the country is that you do not sacrifice quality or performance by hiring a person with a disability. On the contrary, I find that the intangibles are as relevant as the business advantages – like a dedicated and capable workforce.\n<\/p>\n

\nNow is the time to invest in the unseen workforce right in front of us. Hire someone with a disability.\n<\/p>\n

\nJeffrey Mittman
