May 21, 2014: Swan Company

Swan Company

During the visit, it was stressed that Swan hired people with disabilities. They did not go into detail if these disabilities were only physical, mental or a combination of the two. Two charts were displayed concerning Swan’s workforce. The first chart showed even though Swan employed people with disabilities as well as people with disabilities, they were still competitive in terms of productivity with other rivals. The second chart showed that when pairing a disabled person with someone who is not, that the result is still a high quality but efficient product. This is because the non-disabled person is teaching the disabled person. The disabled person has learned the necessary skills to produce an error free product while still providing maximum output.
