People with disabilities have the skills Alberta’s trades need—but barriers still exist. In 2024, the employment rate for persons with disabilities was just 46.4% nationally, compared to 66.2% for those without disabilities. Alberta leads at 53%, but there’s more work to do.
Organizations like Selections Career Support Services are making a difference through programs like GRIT (Get Ready in Trades), helping individuals with disabilities gain pre-apprenticeship training and connect with inclusive employers. Learn more: selectionscareer.com
Employers: Inclusive hiring isn’t just the right thing—it’s smart business. Employees with disabilities have 80% lower turnover rates, and inclusive workplaces attract broader customer bases.
