FCC Construcción shares the video of Vulnerables from the Adecco Foundation

FCC Construcción, on the occasion of the day of disability, shares the video "Vulnerables" from the Adecco Foundation. Who hasn't felt vulnerable this year? Pablo Pineda, Desirée Vila and María Petit felt vulnerable in 2020, but it is a feeling that they already knew before, 4 million people with disabilities in Spain already knew it before.

Knowing that you have Down syndrome and that this means that you are "different" from other children your age; know that you will not see again due to a traffic accident with 17 years; or knowing that you will not compete as a gymnast again because your leg is amputated at the age of 16. Pablo, Maria and Desi felt vulnerable, a lot. But with the help of their environment and the conviction that there are no limits capable of stopping a person struggling for a dream, they were able to overcome and turn their disability into an impulse to improve their lives. They are only 3 examples, but there are 4 million people in their situation in our country.

Since the start of the pandemic, the hiring of people with disabilities has fallen by 29%, placing them again at the center of vulnerability in the labor market. This decline represents the first setback on the path to equality since 2012, a disadvantage of more than one point compared to the drop in general hiring.
