Let’s make the new year even more about saying YES!

Summing up this year, we’re proud of the progress we’ve made toward a more inclusive and diverse job market, especially concerning disability inclusion. We hope that the coming year brings even more initiatives among Polish employers, effectively increasing the conscious employment of people with disabilities. Let’s make the new year even more about saying YES!

We’re also grateful for the past year, particularly the recent months, which have been intense and promising. We’ve partnered with new companies eager to include people with disabilities in their teams, and we’ll continue to support them in this journey. Here are some of the “Employers who say YES” and our joint initiatives from the last quarter of 2024, heralding what’s to come in 2025:
