Anubhuti Consultants: HR consultancy for the differently abled

Anubhuti is a one-stop HR solution consultancy designed exclusively for the differently abled. It attempts to be the bridge between the corporate world and the large population of differently abled who find it difficult to reach these corporate doors and convince those who matter that they are no less competent.

Anubhuti,(which, roughly translated, means feeling) was started by Anubhuti Mittal, an HR professional with extensive experience of the BPO sector in May 2005. Her last role, before she decided to launch Anubhuti, was as Assistant Vice President in the HR team at GE. The organization was setup with the vision of creating an "inclusive" workforce where merit is the only criteria for employment and not an individual's physical ability (or disability).

The idea is two fold: first, and most importantly, to address the social problem of acceptance of physically disabled people in mainstream society and second , to bring to the forefront a new pool of employable population to meet the growing needs of the economy.

It has done reasonably well in the first year of its operation - 60 placements (Hearing Impaired- 40, Visually Impaired - 8, Orthopaedically Handicapped - 8, Mental illness/ Retardation- 4) in the NCR. Jobs range from deaf data entry operators to wheelchair bound frontline operations people in call centres to blind HR executives to blind voice and soft skills trainers, medical transcritionists to people with mental retardation employed with garment export house for packaging etc.

Anubhuti also has an impressive lineup of clients like GE Money, IBM Daksh, Hewitt, Efunds International, ITC Welcomgroup, FICCI, The India Today Group etc.... all of them first timers as far as working with the differently abled is concerned

Unlike most other placement agencies, Anubhuti's role does not stop at merely helping corporates fill up vacancies. Anubhuti provides a 5-step sustainable hiring solution meant to ensure that hiring differently abled people is not viewed as a one-time act of charity but instead makes long-term business sense. With Anubhuti you are assured of an end-to-end hiring methodology. From an audit of your facility to ensure that it is capable of catering to the needs of the differently abled to sensitizing the management and other employees, Anubhuti aims to provide not just a pool of talented resources but also an environment which will help them thrive.
