This year marks Lenovo's fifth consecutive year of recognition in the United States, and the second year the company is honored in both the United Kingdom and Brazil
NORTHAMPTON, MA / ACCESS Newswire / October 2, 2025 / Lenovo announced it has once again been named a "Best Place to Work for Disability Inclusion" by the Disability Index®, the world's most comprehensive benchmarking tool for measuring disability workplace inclusion. This year marks Lenovo's fifth consecutive year of recognition in the United States, and the second year the company is honored in both the United Kingdom and Brazil. The repeated recognition across these global markets highlights Lenovo's ongoing commitment to cultivating an inclusive and accessible workplace for all.
"At Lenovo, we believe disability talent brings unique perspectives, resilience, and creativity that are essential to driving innovation and shaping an inclusive culture," said Calvin Crosslin, Chief Inclusion Officer, Lenovo. "Being recognized once again by the Disability Index is a testament to this inclusive culture we're building every day. Through our global programs and employee resource groups like we are working to ensure that everyone can thrive at Lenovo and help us deliver on our mission to create smarter technology for all."
The 2025 Disability Index measured six key performance indicators: Culture & Leadership; Enterprise-Wide Access; Employment Practices; Community Engagement; Supplier Inclusion; and Responsible Procurement.
The Lenovo's Disability Advantage Initiative is one of the global programs launched two years ago. It contributes to shape a more inclusive global workplace by raising awareness, building resources, and embedding disability inclusion and accessibility into Lenovo's workplaces. Informed by a global self-assessment conducted with the International Labour Organization (ILO), the initiative has led to the creation of market-specific action plans and a global HR task force focused on driving awareness, resources, challenge the status-quo.
In the three markets recognized, the Lenovo teams organized local initiatives promoting and supporting disability in the workplace:
United States: In Raleigh, North Carolina, ABLE hosted a ComMotion event with the LatinX ERG, HOLA, in March 2025 to deliver an adaptive dance group workout to Latin music from seats and then adaptive standing with the Governor Morehead School for the Blind students.
United Kingdom: In its Farnborough and Glasgow offices, Lenovo offered its employees access to Autism Reality Experiences and Virtual Dementia Tours. These experiences help employees, specifically people managers, understand the needs of these groups, helping to foster a more inclusive mindset and a more empathetic workforce.
Brazil: In its Indaiatuba factory, Lenovo started a "Be an Inclusive Buddy" program, which aims to support the integration of new employees with disabilities. The Buddy is a volunteer colleague who offers practical guidance and welcoming support daily.
These local efforts together with global programs are driving lasting cultural change and impact reinforcing Lenovo's commitment to disability inclusion across its workforce.
