• Employers should aim to create an inclusive work environment that values all
of the members of the organization.
Advancement:
• Managers should ensure all employees are aware of promotional
opportunities. This includes ensuring information about promotions are
accessible.
• Human resources professionals should view all employees, regardless of
disability, the same, and should not assume who will or will not want the
opportunity to advance.
• Employers should also not make assumptions about the abilities of disabled
employees but should instead work to actively determine both the strengths
and limitations of these employees.
• As with other jobs, human resources professionals should evaluate
promotional opportunities to determine their essential functions, in order to
broaden to scope of who can be considered for these advancements.
Best Practices of Hospitality Leaders: There are a few hospitality companies that act
as leaders in the industry when it comes to employing individuals with disabilities.
The DiversityInc Top Ten Companies for People with Disabilities 2011 has two
hospitality companies—Sodexo (a food service company) and Starwood Hotels and
Resorts. Ranking #9 on the list, Sodexo includes a large percentage of disability
organizations in its philanthropic endeavors. In addition, their training and mentoring programs are “highly attuned to cultural competence for an inclusive organization,
including people with disabilities.” Starwood, ranked #10, also includes numerous

for employees.

Marriott International’s Bridges from School to Work was founded by the Marriott
Foundation for People with Disabilities as a program to help young people with
disabilities to transition out of high school special education and into entry-level
positions. The program acts as an employment agency and helps more than one
thousand young adults find jobs every year. While this program does not necessarily
place employees into the Marriott Corporation, it serves as an example of how
dedicated hospitality companies can be in promoting the employment of people with
disabilities.
