| Unemployment among those with autism is approximately 85 percent. This statistic means that roughly two-thirds of people with autism are not working. In general, those with autism had lower employment rates and higher social isolation rates than people with other disabilities. Dell Technologies has created a program to help solve this problem. Three years ago, they launched their Autism Hiring Programs. Their goal was to expand their talent pool while bringing traditionally underrepresented groups into their workforce. Since its launch, the program has helped individuals in the Boston and Austin areas who on the autism spectrum find employment outside of the traditional interview process. |
