Global healthcare customer experience company Everise announced that it has been recognized by the National Organization on Disability (NOD) as a Leading Disability Employer for 2024. This prestigious honor highlights the company's ongoing commitment to creating a more inclusive and accessible workplace, where Persons with Disabilities (PWDs) are empowered to thrive.
The NOD Leading Disability Employer Seal is awarded to companies with exceptional performance in disability inclusion practices, as measured by NOD's Employment Tracker™. This assessment evaluates companies on key business practices, including talent sourcing, workplace accessibility, and inclusive cultures, among others.
Since its inception in 2016, Everise has prioritized diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) in its recruitment and talent retention policies. As a result, the organization has seen a consistent increase of PWDs in its workforce, with around 1.5% of Everise employees identifying themselves as PWDs this year. In its recent annual DEI Survey, the company attained a 91% favorability rating among its employees globally. Everise also runs five employee resource groups supporting and providing allyship to various minority groups, including its PWD-focused Ability Champions Network.
"I am truly honored that Everise has been recognized for its efforts as a leading employer of persons with disabilities. As an equal opportunity employer, we welcome, empower, and celebrate talent who join us from diverse backgrounds. This has formed the basis of creativity and innovation that is the foundation of what we do. Our commitment to creating accessible opportunities for all has enabled us to tap into a rich pool of diverse perspectives that drive innovation and creativity," shared Sudhir Agarwal, Founder & CEO, Everise.
"This National Disability Employee Awareness Month, we are deeply honored to receive the NOD Leading Disability Employer Seal for 2024. We have always believed in celebrating the unique strengths every individual brings to our team. As we continue to grow as an organization and an industry leader in championing diversity in the workplace, we are encouraged by these external recognitions that reaffirm our commitment to ensuring that every employee feels empowered to succeed," shared Sheena Ponnappan, Chief People Officer, Everise.
