100 jobs will be available for the disabled | Jorbb.com

Jobs may be scarce during the economic downturn but Singapore companies are still hiring the disabled.

One hundred job openings for the disabled will be publicised in recruitment pages on Saturday.

These jobs are committed by employers who have signed up under the Open Door Fund to redesign jobs for the disabled.

This fund was set up as an incentive programme to help employers defray costs associated with hiring disabled persons.

It is an initiative by the Ministry of Community Development, Youth and Sports and administered by the Singapore National Employers Federation.

The Enabling Employers Network (EE Network), which made the announcement, has urged potential applicants to seize the opportunity to apply for jobs, as they will stand to gain training opportunities.

Employers are expected to tap on the various training schemes launched by the Workforce Development Agency.

EE Network, which started two years ago, is an alliance of employers who champion employment opportunities for the disabled.
