Microsoft Disabled Employee Resource Group

A Microsoft Disabled Employee Resource Group (ERG) is a voluntary, employee-led community within Microsoft composed of staff who have disabilities or are allies. Its purpose is to foster an inclusive environment by providing support, sharing resources, advocating for accessibility improvements, and promoting awareness about disability-related issues. These groups help ensure that employees with disabilities have a voice, feel valued, and can contribute fully to the company's success. ERGs like this also serve as a bridge between employees and management, guiding corporate policies towards more inclusive and accessible practices.
