Lowe's finds spiritual boost in hiring disabled workers in DCs

摘要

After Walgreens won accolades for hiring significant numbers of disabled workers in its distribution centers, Steve Szilagyi wondered if his company, Lowe's, could do the same. As he began to study the idea, Szilagyi visited the Walgreens DC in Anderson, SC, where hundreds of disabled workers are employed. "I was blown away by the culture and by what they were doing," says Szilagyi, senior vice president of distribution at Lowe's.
