Sask. government to hire more people with intellectual disabilities
The provincial government is expanding a program that encourages its managers to hire people with intellectual disabilities.
The job program was the first of its kind when it was implemented 10 years ago in the Ministry of Highways and Infrastructure and the Ministry of Social Services. Under the initiative, people with cognitive disabilities were hired to wash laundry or clean equipment and buildings.
