With the increasing reliance on emerging technologies in the context of digital transformation
businesses aim to enhance service quality and adapt to changing customer needs. However
persons with disabilities still face barriers to employment due to negative attitudes
lack of accessibility
and discrimination. Therefore
there is a need to explore the challenges and opportunities associated with learning organization
digital accessibility
and disability in digital transformation
specifically focusing on employment for persons with disabilities in the human resources industry. This research agenda seeks to investigate the role of learning organization in enabling persons with disabilities for employment
identifying key challenges and opportunities associated with learning organization
digital accessibility
and disability in digital transformation. The contributions will provide valuable insights into policies and strategies that can promote accessibility
inclusion
and equity in the workplace for persons with disabilities through the lens of learning organization
contributing to the sustainable development goal of reducing inequality and promoting inclusive economic growth. This research agenda will be relevant for policymakers
employers
and persons with disabilities in the human resources industry.
