PITTSBURGH, PA / ACCESS Newswire / July 17, 2025 / Wesco, a leading provider of business-to-business distribution, logistics services and supply chain solutions, is honored to again be recognized as a "Best Place to Work for Disability Inclusion," earning a top score on the 2025 Disability Equality Index®. This marks Wesco's second consecutive year receiving this distinction. In 2025, the Index recognized Wesco with top scores in the United States, Canada and the United Kingdom, reflecting Wesco's global commitment to building an inclusive, accessible and equitable workplace.
"At Wesco, we are dedicated to fostering a culture where every individual feels valued and empowered," says John Engel, Chairman, President and CEO. "Being recognized as a Best Place to Work for Disability Inclusion is not only a tremendous honor, but also a testament to our culture of inclusion."
The Disability Index evaluates companies across six key categories: culture and leadership, enterprise-wide access, employment practices, community engagement, supplier inclusion and responsible procurement. A score of 100 indicates that a company is exceeding industry standards in creating an inclusive, accessible and equitable environment for people with disabilities.
Launched in 2015, the Disability Index has become the world's most comprehensive benchmarking tool for companies to measure disability workplace inclusion inside their organization. The tool has now expanded to include benchmarking for companies in eight markets, reflecting its global impact and relevance in today's rapidly changing business environment.
At the heart of Wesco's disability progress is its ABLE Business Resource Group (BRG), which is dedicated to fostering awareness, allyship and inclusion for people with disabilities. Open to all employees, ABLE's mission is to promote an inclusive environment and support networks that understand and address the challenges employees with disabilities face. The group works to remove barriers in the workplace, provide meaningful and equal opportunities for recruitment and career development, and advocate for and educate on behalf of employees with disabilities. Through these efforts, ABLE helps shape a culture of belonging and accessibility across Wesco.
