Rick Hansen Foundation news

New data available

      

Dear Olaf,
 

 The Angus Reid Institute in partnership with the Rick Hansen Foundation has   released new national public opinion data on disability, accessibility, and   inclusion today. Please find the full research report here.
 

 This new data illustrates how people with disabilities continue to face   barriers to employment and that Canadians are more likely to support   organizations that have specific DE&I policies that focus on disability.
 

 Some of the key highlights include: 

  • 91% of Canadians       say that it’s unacceptable that people with physical disabilities are        underemployed because of workplace barriers.
  • 40% of people with disabilities say companies fall short when it comes to hiring those with disabilities. This        increases to 55% for 18- to 34-year old people with a disability.
  • 78% of Canadians believe an organization’s equity,        diversity, and inclusion policies should include disability.
  • 62% of Canadians       say they would be more likely to give their business to a company if        they knew that they had specific policies to support people living with        disabilities.

​​​​​​Earlier this year, another partnership study with ARI   found that nine in ten (92%) Canadians agree that taxpayer-funded projects   should be held to the highest accessibility standards – a finding with   important implications for post-pandemic infrastructure recovery projects.   Despite broad-based support for higher levels of accessibility and   inclusivity, it’s clear that many barriers continue to persist and that there   remains much room for improvement across Canada.
 

 This latest research continues to strengthen the importance of the work we do   together, thanks to your support. Please feel free to share these findings   with your network.
 

 Warm regards,

 

Doramy Ehling, CEO
 Rick Hansen Foundation
