2012 Employer of the Year
Profile
The Arc San Francisco is proud to recognize Deloitte as the 2012 Employer of the Year. Deloitte has been a longtime champion of employing individuals with developmental disabilties in the workplace—several staff are clients of The Arc. The company was honored, along with other exemplary companies and client-employees, at The Arc’s recent WorkLife Awards ceremony.
The opportunity to work
For people with developmental disabilities, having the opportunity to work is often the single most important factor in achieving personal independence. Work provides much-needed income and is a great source of pride for employers and employees alike. Workers with developmental disabilities offer greater stability in high turnover positions and have lower rates of absenteeism. Plus, these workers raise company morale and bring an important perspective to the workplace.
