Inclusive employment of people with disabilities

#Inclusion #Employment #Disability 



Albin Falkmer [Director, Governance and Public Affairs, Samhall]




1. Background, establishment process, and current status of Samhall

Samhall is a state-owned Swedish company dedicated to providing employment opportunities that promote the development of individuals with disabilities. The company envisions a Swedish labor market where every person is perceived as a valuable contributor.



While the societal benefits of employing people with disabilities are evident and widely accepted, it's equally vital to underscore the economic advantages. Initiatives targeting employment and educational programs for people with disabilities often have substantial upfront costs. By quantifying and demonstrating the socio-economic returns on such investments, stakeholders might be more encouraged to contribute to the sector.
