Otis Commits to Advancing Equality and Inclusion for People with Disabilities

CEO Judy Marks signs Disability:IN letter to mark International Day of Persons with Disabilities

Otis Chair, CEO & President Judy Marks today joined other global business leaders in signing the CEO Letter on Disability Inclusion by Disability:IN, a leading organization for advancing equality and inclusion for people with disabilities worldwide.

By signing on to the CEO letter, Marks expands the relationship between the two organizations: Otis has been a corporate member of Disability:IN since becoming an independent company in 2020.

As part of the agreement, Otis commits to three key actions:

1. Participate in the annual Disability Equality Index, a corporate benchmarking tool for disability equality.
2. Share important information on disability inclusion that details its impact on business performance.
3. Acknowledge that Otis is aware of increasing investor interest in understanding how companies are inclusive of people with disabilities.

“Research shows that ensuring colleagues with disabilities are represented at all levels of an organization positively impacts culture and performance,” said Marks. “At Otis, we take pride in creating an environment where all colleagues can thrive, including ensuring appropriate accommodations for colleagues with disabilities.”

Otis was also recently named to the Forbes World’s Best Employers list. To learn more about Diversity, Equity & Inclusion at Otis, including our Commitment to Change, visit the Diversity, Equity & Inclusion page.
