In collaboration with the Industrial Fasteners Institute, The Uniquely Abled Project has developed a program to support fastener manufacturers in accessing and hiring uniquely abled individuals, who often are ideal matches for the jobs in fastener manufacturing.

List of Unique Abilities for Fastener Manufacturing Jobs

To fill a workforce vacancy for tasks that do not require prior training before hire, e.g., those on the above referenced list excluding Automatic Machines, call one of the agency contacts listed under your city name. The contact will also have the same list of jobs and associated unique abilities so all you need do is to identify the task.

It is recommended that you invite the contact associated with your city to visit your facility in advance of a need so they have a better appreciation of the job and the environment and can be better prepared to serve you.

Please let us know of suggested additions and changes.  As the program expands across the country, this list will be updated and expanded.
