Rehabilitation & Employment · Munich
In postwar Munich, thousands of polio survivors needed somewhere to heal — and then somewhere to go. Stiftung Pfennigparade began as a rehabilitation clinic and kept asking one question that most clinics didn't: what happens after? The answer, built over seven decades, is a cluster of real businesses — IT, printing, catering, a café-bookshop in Schwabing — where more than 2,500 people now work, most with severe physical disabilities. They didn't design an inclusion programme. They designed jobs.

Staffing · Netherlands

French law requires every employer with 20 or more staff to ensure at least 6% of their workforce has a recognised disability (RQTH status), or pay into the AGEFIPH fund.

17,049 workplace adaptations funded in 2021 · €265M redistributed annually
Outdoor Retail · Norway
Stormberg is a Norwegian outdoor clothing company built on a second-chance philosophy. Since 2007, founder Steinar J. Olsen has kept a standing target: at least 25% of all employees should be people who have struggled to enter the labour market — through long-term unemployment, illness or other barriers. No separate scheme, just real jobs.
25% of staff hired from excluded groups · Sustained for 15+ years
Transport · Germany
Deutsche Bahn employs severely disabled people at 5.3% of its workforce, above the legally required 5% quota.

Leadership Accountability · Global
Caroline Casey hid her visual impairment for seventeen years. Diagnosed at six months with ocular albinism, she built a career without telling anyone she couldn't see — until 1999, when she finally told her HR director. That moment set off twenty-five years. In 2019, she rode a horse across Colombia to reach Paul Polman (then Unilever CEO), who gave her the Davos main stage. Her ask was simple: put disability on your board agenda. Not in the CSR report — in the room.
500 global companies committed · $23 trillion combined market cap · 20 million employees covered
Corporate Foundation · France

87 Employment Centres · wage subsidies up to 75 % · 15,000+ disabled jobseekers supported annually
Rehabilitation Center · Ukraine
Superhumans Center in Lviv made a promise when it opened in the wake of Russia's full-scale invasion: every patient — soldier or civilian, regardless of what they lost — will leave as capable or more capable than before. That is not a hope. It is the standard. For InkludX, this is the spirit that should define work inclusion too. Not reduced expectations or lowered bars, but genuine belief in what people can become with the right support. Disability is not a ceiling. Superhumans prove it every day.
Every patient leaves as capable or more capable than before
State-Owned Enterprise · Sweden
Samhall is a Swedish state-owned company with a unique legal mandate: every one of its 24,000+ employees has a disability.

IT Consulting · Norway
Unicus was founded in Oslo in 2009 on a simple insight: autistic people often excel at precision, pattern recognition and focus — exactly what IT demands. After merging with German partner auticon in 2023, they now deploy autistic IT consultants at hundreds of companies across 15 countries.
79% of 552 staff are autistic · 266 client companies in 2023
Social Economy · Italy
Law 381 created a new category of business whose founding purpose was to put disadvantaged people to work — not as charity, but as the business model. Today more than 5,000 Type B social cooperatives operate across Italy, in agriculture, food, cleaning, and IT. At least 30% of every cooperative's workforce must include people closed out of the mainstream: those with mental illness, addiction histories, criminal records, or severe disabilities. They don't just hold jobs here. They own the place.

Its legacy is now being embedded into Welsh employment policy from 2027.

Supported Employment · South West England
Pluss was built on a belief that most employment support gets the order wrong. The standard model asks people to prove they're ready before helping them find work. Pluss flips it: get the person into a real job first, then wrap support around them as they go. Thomas had been homeless for six months when he came through the programme. He didn't need years of pre-employment training — he needed a Traffic Management qualification and someone in his corner. He's employed now.
50,000+ people placed · Over half of Pluss's own staff have a disability
Enterprise Software · Germany
SAP launched Autism at Work in 2013 after noticing something obvious in hindsight: their software runs on logic, precision, and pattern recognition — and they were screening out people who excelled at exactly that, because those people didn't ace a 30-minute conversation with a stranger. So they changed the process. Multi-day assessment weeks replaced speed interviews. A decade on, Nicolas Neumann — hired in Buenos Aires in 2016 before finishing high school — built an invoice automation tool that cut a 3-day manual process to 20 minutes, and won SAP's highest employee innovation prize at 21.
215+ autistic employees · Program active in 16 countries
Supported Employment · France
Founded in 1975, Messidor runs transitional sheltered work centres across France for people with psychosocial disabilities. Rather than permanent sheltered work, small supervised teams and personal employment counsellors build a 4–5 year pathway toward the regular labour market. 54% of its budget comes from commercial activity, not subsidy.

Denmark's Fleksjob scheme offers a permanent, taxpayer-funded wage subsidy to people whose work capacity is significantly and permanently reduced. Employers pay only for hours and productivity delivered; the state tops up the rest. A record 107,000 Danes were in Fleksjob in 2023 — the highest in the scheme's history.

Its current three-year disability agreement runs to 2026.

Mental Health Employment · Netherlands
Individual Placement and Support starts from a belief that still surprises people: most people with severe mental health conditions want to work, can work, and don't need to become well first. In the Netherlands, IPS employment specialists work directly inside psychiatric teams — in the same building, often the same room. The model gets people into real, paid, competitive employment now, then builds support around them. After 30 months, 46% of IPS participants were in competitive employment — roughly twice the rate of traditional vocational rehabilitation.

Social Enterprise · United Kingdom
60% of the people who work at Turning Point have been through what their clients are going through. Addiction. Mental health crises. Learning disabilities. Not as something read in a textbook — something lived. That's not a footnote. It's the model. Turning Point recruits for lived experience the way other organisations recruit for qualifications, because they've spent sixty years watching what actually reaches people in crisis. 168 peer mentors volunteer in substance misuse services. Last year, 22 of them moved into paid roles at Turning Point itself.

Disability Employment · United Kingdom
Scope is one of Britain's largest disability charities. A few years ago it asked itself an honest question: are we actually a good employer for disabled people? The answer was uncomfortable. Job descriptions had unnecessary requirements. Interview formats assumed everyone communicates the same way. Hiring managers carried the same biases they'd spent years campaigning against. Scope redesigned their recruitment from scratch, stripped out artificial barriers, retrained interviewers, and launched Work With Me with Virgin Media — a public campaign asking employers to appoint a senior leader accountable for disability inclusion.

Vocational integration · Switzerland
Procap is Switzerland's leading organisation for disability employment integration. Using the Individual Placement and Support (IPS) model, its employment advisors work directly with employers to secure mainstream jobs — then provide ongoing job-coach support to both worker and employer. Procap collaborates with the cantonal IV-Stelle (disability insurance offices) and operates regional teams across all 26 cantons. The organisation was founded in 1930 and serves people with physical, sensory, and mental health conditions.
