The National Organization on Disability (NOD) today announced TD Bank is among fifty-two organizations that have been named a 2018 NOD Leading Disability Employer™. Now in its third year, the NOD Leading Disability Employer seal recognizes companies that demonstrate exemplary employment practices for people with disabilities. This annual recognition is designed to applaud those organizations that are leading the way in disability hiring and encourage additional companies to tap into the many benefits of hiring talent with disabilities, including strong consumer preference for companies that employ individuals with disabilities and greater employee engagement across the workforce.
The winning organizations were announced at NOD’s Corporate Leadership Council Annual Forum, New Frontiers in Disability Employment, hosted by national partners, Northrop Grumman and PwC, with sponsorship support from Kaiser Permanente.
"Our success in a global economy depends, now more than ever, on how well we inspire and put to use the talent and energies of every person in this country – every talent, every skill, every ability," said NOD Chairman Governor Tom Ridge. "For more than 35 years the National Organization on Disability has served as a bridge-builder to the wider world of employment and independence for the 57 million Americans with disabilities."
"And so do this year’s NOD Leading Disability Employers. We thank TD Bank for its commitment to building a disability inclusive workforce," Ridge said.
