Bhubaneswar: The Social Security and Empowerment of Persons with Disabilities (SSEPD) Department of the Odisha Government has launched a pioneering initiative to train 150 hearing-impaired youth in Hospitality Operations. This program, in collaboration with the Institute of Hotel Management (IHM), Bhubaneswar, aims to enhance the employability of differently-abled individuals in the hospitality sector, and the results have already been promising.
The first batch of trainees is set to complete their training by October 2024, and many participants have already received job offers from leading hospitality brands. This initiative highlights the state’s commitment to inclusive development and providing meaningful career opportunities for differently-abled individuals.
