STORY OF 2 FROG
A group of frogs were traveling through the woods, and two of
them fell into a deep pit. When the other frogs saw how deep
the pit was, they told the two frogs that they were as good as
dead. The two frogs ignored the comments and tried to jump
up out of the pit with all their might. The other frogs kept
telling them to stop, that they were as good as dead. Finally,
one of the frogs took heed to what the other frogs were saying
and gave up. He fell down and died.
The other frog continued to jump as hard as he
could. Once again, the crowd of frogs yelled at
him to stop the pain and just die. He jumped
even harder and finally made it out. When he got
out, the other frogs said, "Did you not hear us?"
The frog explained to them that he was deaf. He
thought they were encouraging him the entire
time.

Gitanjali Gems Ltd
The Gems & Jewellery provides ample opportunities for
the employment of persons with disabilities on account of
the specific nature of its processes. No company has put this
realization to better use than the Gitanjali Group.
Established in 1966, it is India’s largest integrated diamond
& manufacturer-retailer.
Lemon Tree Hotels Pvt. Ltd.
If all goes per plan ,by 2013 Lemon Tree Hotels will have
about 300 disabled people as team members (or one in every
ten, a significant jump from the current 50 or 3.3 % of staff
strength . Not surprising for a chain that prides itself on
providing employment to those with speech & hearing
impairments. This has been company policy from an early
stage of the chain’s existence.
Sinar Jernih (India)
Pvt Ltd.
What better testimony to the thoughtfulness that goes
into the employment of persons with disabilities than
the fact that such individual’s special needs are taken
into consideration at the time of induction? An equal
opportunity employer, Sinar Jernih (Ind) Pvt. Ltd.
believes in doing things differently.
