The Nemasket Group is NOT

About pity…. We believe in people's capacity to do fine work, in ability…. not disability.

About hiring employees who are going to have lots of accidents… The 1990 Dupont study found the safety records of people with disabilities are identical to those of other employees and that has matched our experience.

About spending lots of money adapting your business…. Most workers with disabilities require NO special accommodations and the cost for those who do is minimal or much lower than many employers believe.
