Deutsche Bank Singapore Honoured with Platinum Enabling Mark for Disability Inclusion
Deutsche Bank Singapore has been recognised for its commitment to fostering an inclusive workplace and creating equal employment opportunities for persons with disabilities. The bank was awarded the prestigious Platinum Enabling Mark by SG Enable, the highest national-level accreditation for disability inclusion in Singapore.
For over a decade, Deutsche Bank Singapore has been empowering persons with disabilities through its dbEnable programme. One of the key features of this programme is the dbEnable Work Placement Program, designed to provide meaningful employment opportunities. This programme offers 10-week professional experiences across various bank divisions to students with disabilities, integrating them into meaningful projects that contribute to the bank's innovative solutions.
The Work Placement Program has been successful in providing permanent employment opportunities for students, not just at Deutsche Bank, but also in other major corporations. Last year, the bank introduced the Neurodiversity@Work program in Singapore, collaborating with the Autism Resource Center to onboard six autistic individuals into Operations roles.
Deutsche Bank Singapore's initiatives are part of a broader strategy to empower all employees and encourage a supportive work environment. The bank is collaborating with SG Enable to create an inclusive workplace and has been a founding member of the Singapore Business Network on Disability (SBNoD). The SBNoD aims to promote the inclusion of people with disabilities by raising disability awareness, providing job opportunities, and promoting inclusivity in the community.
The bank is also working with other like-minded businesses to share best practices and experiences, collectively working towards a more inclusive society. The bank's website has taken progressive steps to expand hiring efforts for people with disabilities across the region, and it has received the Platinum Enabling Mark, a testament to its commitment to disability inclusion.
Deutsche Bank Singapore's efforts to promote disability inclusion are not only beneficial for the individuals involved but also contribute to a more inclusive society in Singapore. The bank has implemented coaching and awareness initiatives to support employees with both visible and invisible disabilities, demonstrating its dedication to creating a supportive work environment for all.
