AbilityWorks Business Services

How Does AbilityWorks benefit the Business Community?

The cooperative relationship between AbilityWorks and the business community is key to the success of the program. The work experience of AbilityWorks clients is made possible by subcontracts with local industries. Products are brought into the center where various operations are performed just as they would be in the industries that subcontract with the program. The clients are paid for their work on a piece-rate basis that is derived from prevailing wage in the community for similar work.
