Some of us do not realise that we subconsciously underestimate people with disabilities, and this is the greatest disability we have.

One’s disability does not define them. PWDs are humans, just like you and me- they just happen to have a disability. Watch the video on how the ableist challenges PWDs face in their workplace affect them, and how you can play a part in eradicating these challenges.

14/07/2021

The challenges that PWDs may face in the workplace can be classified into three main categories: stereotypes and biases, lack of accommodations and lastly, negative reactions by nondisabled co-workers and customers.

14/07/2021

What can we do to minimize as much as possible the ableism PWDs face in the workplace? 1) Respect and understand that one’s disability is a part of their identity, but in no way encompasses them as a whole. 2) Speak up against non-inclusive and discriminatory company practices and policies. 3) Learn by practicing self-accountability. 4) Normalize being more mindful and sensitive towards others.

14/07/2021

How have our surroundings growing up influenced the way we treat and view PWDs? Growing up in Singapore and in Asian households in particular, there may have been little done to change negative views and/or a strong avoidance of talking about mental disabilities perpetuated by others, leading to rooted ignorance and subsequently, fostered prejudice against PWDs. This all culminates in many carrying out acts of ableism in their workplaces when they interact with a PWD as fellow co-workers.

14/07/2021

Ableism is defined as discrimination or prejudice against individuals with both physical and mental disabilities. Examples of ableism in the workplace include assuming and believing you know how a co-worker’s disability affects them without asking, and pretending one’s disability doesn’t exist. Though it’s important to not treat anyone any lesser because of their disability, it’s equally important to acknowledge that they face different challenges and act accordingly.

14/07/2021

We created a short video to showcase what persons with disabilities usually experience in the workplace.

We hope that this video gives you a better understanding of what they experience when working.

So let's help them and make it better for them by creating a more inclusive society! :star2:

14/07/2021

Want to learn how you can be more socially inclusive towards PWDs in the workplace? Here is how you can do so:

1. We should always treat PWDs as equals as they are still human beings and are just like the rest of us except with a few differences.

2. We should never assume that someone has a disability as they might not have any.

3. Do not stare at PWDs as this might make them feel uncomfortable and nervous.

4. Always ask before trying to help a PWD as they know what they need best for themselves and might want to be independent in dealing with their own challenges.

5. Always empathise with PWDs as our understanding and compassion might help them to feel more accepted in our society.

Though it may seem insignificant but every simple act of kindness matters in this society so do your part now! 🥰

This is the life story of Mr Chen Chee Min, which talks about the various struggles that he had faced after becoming paralysed.

For instance, he faced difficulties in learning how to walk again as well as in finding jobs as most employers were reluctant to hire him due to the misconceptions that they have on PWDs. However, he never gave up and persevered despite facing so many difficulties.

Hence, we hope that his story will help you to empathise more with PWDs and to not stigmatize them based on their disabilities as PWDs can be very capable as well! Have you had any experiences with PWDs in your lives before? Do share with us! :blush:

14/07/2021

Here are some important statistics that we have found about Persons with Disabilities (PWDs) in the workplace. Do any of these statistics surprise you or are you already aware?

Due to their disabilities, PWDs are usually not included in social activities and people tend to stigmatize them based on their disabilities. Hence, our group believe that we should all play a part in being more inclusive towards PWDs, not just in the workplace but in our every day life.

Do you know how you can play a part? 🤔 Let us know what you think in the comment section down below! Also, keep a look out for our next few posts as we will be sharing on how you can play a part!

We hope that this infographic can help you in learning more about disability in Singapore. We can all play a part in including persons with disabilities in our society by simply not judging them, listening to them, and lastly, helping them (if they agree to you helping them). Be kind and be considerate as every simple act of kindness matters in this world

This video is based on a true story.

Many of us are oblivious to the little discriminations that PWDs face everyday and growing up.😓😓

Some disabilities can’t always be seen so we should keep an open mind to everyone around us! ✨✨

Over the years, there are significant improvements on inclusivity and discrimination of PWDs. 📈

However, there is still a lack of information and understanding towards social inclusion and stigma about the PWDs. 📰📄

We hope through this small brief summary, it would enlighten and allow people to further understand PWDs. ☺️🤍
