PET OF THE WEEK

Seraphina Animal ID: 82696 Name: Seraphina Age: Unknown Sex: Female Species: Rabbit Breed: Dutch Color: White/Black

Included in the adoption fee:

- Spay/Neuter surgery (done before being placed up for adoption) - Microchipping - First set of vaccines - Complimentary post-adoption vet exam - And so much more!

How’s it hoppin’?

My name is Seraphina. I am a feisty female who has learned a lot since arriving at the shelter.

I can be territorial when you approach my space, but once out of my cage, I warm up quickly. I’ve had a lot of socialization with the nice folks here at the shelter, and I have learned that I sure enjoy delicious snacks!

I’ll need a home experienced with rabbits to continue with all the hard work I have been doing at EHS. With the right family, I know I’ll fit in and be a bun-tastic addition! Help me find a home for the holidays.

MY JOB FINDER ALBERTA JOB OPPORTUNITIES 7

Working Wise Dear Working Wise: I just hired a new designer. She hasn’t started work yet, but she seems like a good fit.

She has the education plus a great personality—but I’m a little worried. She uses a wheelchair and I’m concerned about the cost to accommodate her disability. Where can I access more information on hiring a person with a disability? Signed, Concerned ©iStockphoto/peregrina

Dear Concerned: Hiring a new employee is always an opportunity to think about how to best bring them on board. Your new employee will benefit from all of the usual onboarding processes and the topic of accommodation can be discussed and reviewed together at this time.

Do you have a work-related question?

Send your questions to Working Wise, at charles.strachey@gov.ab.ca. Charles Strachey is a manager with Alberta Human Services. This column is provided for general information.

One in seven Albertans has a disability including those with invisible disabilities like learning disabilities or mental health issues. You may already employ someone with a disability and not even know it.

Accommodating a disability is less expensive than you might think and you may realize some unexpected benefits as accommodations might assist other employees or your customers.

A Job Accommodation Network survey of more than 1,000 employers found that 56 per cent of disabled employees required accommodations that cost nothing at all. Employers reported the average cost to accommodate an employee with a disability at $320 and 95 per cent said that it was a one-time cost.

The Alberta Government’s Disability Related Employment Supports (DRES) can be used help offset some of the costs of worksite modifications or assistive technology. To learn more about DRES, visit humanservices.alberta.ca/dres.

Your new employee may not need any modifications at all. Many people who live with disabilities have become experts in overcoming the challenges of daily living and your employee may have some ideas to share about accommodation strategies as well. She may tell you that she has to perform a task in a different way or that she will require some sort of accommodation, e.g. special software.

Opening your doors to all Albertans gives you more choice to hire the right skill sets for the job. Job seekers with disabilities historically have been an untapped labour source, but technology and increased access to post-secondary education enables people with disabilities to reach their full potential.

If you have questions, help is available for employers. Alberta Works Centres and Alberta Human Services funded agencies around the province help employers attract and retain employees with disabilities. Contact your nearest Alberta Works Centre for more information at humanservices.alberta.ca/offices.

Alberta Human Services is developing and implementing an Employment First Strategy to get government, employers and communities working closer together to help more people with disabilities find rewarding careers.

For more information on Employment First, employer success stories, Employment First webcasts, and the Top 10 Myths of Hiring People with Disabilities, click humanservices.alberta.ca/ef.

More than a dozen events are being held on December 3, 2015 to mark International Day of Persons with Disabilities.
