Hire Gauge encourages businesses to calculate the financial ROI and other benefits of hiring a person with a disability. It's the only online tool of its kind that depicts the tangible monetary incentives that can accumulate each time a company hires a person with a disability. After answering questions such as, “Do you plan to hire a disabled vet?,” you see a running tally of savings and a series of happy faces indicating the “cultural” value. Completely cool.
We are so honored to be selected as a finalist for this award! This was a fabulous project to work on and really one of a kind. Ahead of National Disability Employment Awareness Month in October, I hope employers use this tool to calculate their savings (and other benefits) of hiring PWDs. Thanks, MediaPost!
