Working with deaf people

Bringing deaf workers into your company may call for slight accommodations and approaching communication in a fresh manner but the gains are great, including:

• The deaf worker can better contribute to your operation;
• Your associates will benefit from the fresh perspective of the deaf worker;
• Your company’s diversity will be enhanced.

Below are some helpful hints on how to better communicate with your deaf co-workers.
