On April 25, 2025, PANTOUR highlighted best practices to create inclusive workplaces for employees with disabilities. This guide focuses on promoting equal opportunities through inclusive hiring practices, fostering an inclusive culture, and providing tailored training programmes. It highlights successful examples, such as the CRPD's efforts to raise awareness of disability-inclusive employment across 185 countries. Outcomes include increased awareness and the implementation of strong policies aligned with the Sustainable Development Goals to support the full integration of people with disabilities into the workforce.For a detailed overview of best practices, examples, and outcomes, please refer to the attached link on the left-hand side of the platform.
