People with disabilities have always been a respected part of Sivantos workforce. While some of our employees are hard of hearing and understand what it means to wear hearing aids, others have mastered different challenges in their lives.

Take for example Suleiman (pictured left, with Sivantos SVP HR Nicolai Jensen) from manufacturing in Singapore, who has worked for Sivantos for almost 30 years with a physical disability. His story will be aired in a Channel News Asia documentary later this year.

Our most recent example is in the hiring of two trainees with intellectual disabilities from Hearts@work in Singapore. Karen (l.) and Jia Wei do some of the packing for the company. We invited these trainees and their family members to our Open House in January. A special moment for them, their family members – and for Sivantos. Their story will be aired in the same Channel News Asia documentary later this year.
