Talk of the town:Employment support for persons with disabilities
【明報專訊】According to the official statistics of the government, the unemployment rate of people with disabilities was 11% in 2020. People with disabilities, even those with post-secondary education, were found to encounter more difficulties in finding a job.
The Selective Placement Division of the Labour Department provides personalised employment services for job seekers with disabilities but fit for open employment, helping them get employed more easily. Employment consultants conduct job matching and identify suitable job vacancies for job seekers with disabilities and refer them to employers for job interviews.
