Celebrating National Disability Employment Awareness Month: Fostering Inclusivity and Well-Being 

NDEAM WRAP up_Hero copy

At EVERSANA and EVERSANA INTOUCH, we are committed to fostering an environment where every individual’s unique abilities and perspectives are not only recognized but celebrated. This October, in honor of National Disability Employment Awareness Month (NDEAM), we dedicated ourselves to highlighting the significant contributions of employees with disabilities and reinforcing our commitment to inclusive employment practices. 

This year’s NDEAM initiatives were led by our passionate Professionals with Disabilities Network Chair, Joan Oldham, People Director. 

We celebrated NDEAM with a series of engaging events, specially designed MS Teams backgrounds, and a deep dive into this year’s theme, “Whole Self, Whole Team: Cultivating Employee Well-being, Career Opportunities, and Collective Success.” 

Breathwork and Meditation on World Mental Health Day

In alignment with this year’s theme, our Professionals with Disabilities Network organized a guided meditation session on World Mental Health Day. 

This event provided our employees with a valuable opportunity to reset, recharge, and ground themselves, fostering a sense of calm and well-being as part of our team. 

Global Accommodations – Inclusive Hiring and Employment

EVERSANA’s Professionals with Disabilities Network also hosted an insightful event focused on understanding the differences in workplace accommodations across various countries. This session offered valuable insights into how different regions approach accessibility in the workplace. 

Additionally, there was a bonus segment on ensuring interviews are equitable for all candidates, highlighting best practices for an inclusive hiring process. 

Embracing Diversity: A Commitment That Continues 

At EVERSANA INTOUCH, we believe that our diversity is our strength. As we wrap up National Disability Employment Awareness Month, we carry forward the spirit of “Whole Self, Whole Team.” Our commitment to fostering an inclusive workplace is a continuous journey, embedded in the core of our organization. We honor the past, celebrate the present and look forward to a future where every voice is heard and valued.
