Having a Difficult Time Finding Employees?

The Shuswap Association for Community Living “Made to Order” Employment Program can assist you to identify your unmet business needs by looking at your operations and identifying how persons with specific abilities can be an asset to your business. By identifying your unmet needs, we can provide a more accurate job match with a worker who possesses the unique abilities, contributions, and talents you require.

Research shows that persons with disabilities are work-competent, reliable, and hard-working individuals. According to recent studies

  • 90% of persons with disabilities rated average or better on job performance that their non-disabled colleagues.
  • 86% of persons with disabilities rated average or better on attendance.
  • 98% of persons with disabilities rated average or better in work safety than their non-disabled colleagues.

Made to Order Employment taps into a capable labour market to:

  • Increase staff productivity overall
  • Improve customer service
  • Raise profit margins
  • Reduce turnover

Employers succeed because:

  • Work gets done faster or more precisely by all staff
  • Employees become more productive
  • Profit increases
  • Work can be reorganized to flow better
  • Overburdened employees can be relieved
  • Operations become more efficient
  • Opportunity to negotiate with prospective new hires to meet your business needs.

When Made to Order Employment strategies are used, you and your prospective new hire can negotiate on various aspects resulting in a win-win situation for both you and your worker(s). Some of the areas of negotiation and flexibility may consist of:

  • Schedules/work hours
  • Job tasks
  • Productivity requirements
  • Pay rates

Why consider Made to Order Employment services?

  • Persons with special abilities, contributions, experience, and talents have a strong work ethic, "want to work", are loyal workers, and statistically have better attendance
  • Contribute to the economic growth of our community and utilize the talents that reside locally
  • You help provide an opportunity for independence
  • You and your new employee will receive on site, professional support from an employment specialist for as long as needed.
  • Ongoing supports and follow up will be negotiated to ensure consistency and success.
