Deputy Secretary of Labor Seth Harris recognized 50 human resource representatives of the financial services sector for their commitment to disability hiring and retention at a call to action summit on Tuesday. “The Labor Department is committed to creating that environment of opportunity for every person with a disability who wants a job, and using every technique at our disposal to do so. Partnership with the people in this room is proof that businesses can succeed because of, not in spite of, their commitment to disability hiring and retention,” said Harris.

The event, co-sponsored by DOL and the Financial Services Roundtable, also included Kathy Martinez, assistant secretary of the Office of Disability Employment Policy; Raymond Jefferson, assistant secretary of the Veterans’ Employment and Training Service; Steve Bartlett, president and CEO of the Roundtable; and John Dalton, president of the Roundtable’s Housing Policy Council.
