More than 25% of people aged 15 to 62 who have disabilities are employed, this according to the annual Comprehensive Labour Force Survey. The sectors employing most of these people are community, social and personal services, food services, administrative and support services, and manufacturing. But what can we do to increase this number and encourage more companies to hire PWDs? And how can PWDs seek the training and grants they need to help them to get employed? We discuss with Winnie Lewis, Manager at SG ENABLE (Employment & Employability division), Rachel Yeo, Content Strategist at Seedly and Kenneth Lou, Co-founder of Seedly.
