Kini is just one among many who have benefitted from the IT major’s robust policies towards disability inclusion.
“We are proud of the strides we have made towards disability inclusion. In December 2022, we received the National Award for the Empowerment of Persons with Disabilities from the President of India. It recognised our efforts towards hiring persons with disabilities and enabling their growth in a barrier-free work environment,” says Lakshmi C., Managing Director and Lead-Human Resources, Accenture in India.
