Boston Pizza recognizes Disability Awareness Month

#DEAM

#EngageTalent

Today’s featured employer is Boston Pizza

Boston Pizza is our featured #DEAM employer for today in recognition of Disability Employment Awareness Month When Boston Pizza opened in Huntsville they held a job fair. From the very beginning they have been an inclusive employer, employing several people who live with the label of a disability. Boston Pizza understands that hiring people with disabilities makes good business sense. Out of all the people hired none have been laid off, in fact- we have heard from Boston Pizza on several occasions how happy they are with the people they hired- how hard working, dedicated and committed they are!

in recognition of Disability Employment Awareness Month 2016 we will be featuring photos of local inclusive employers.

Each day we will be adding a new employer and photos of people working.
