New Kelly Solution Builds Stronger Diversity and Inclusion (D&I) Workforce for Clients
Kelly, a global leader in providing workforce solutions, today launched Kelly Discover – an all-in-one engagement platform that connects organizations with neurodiverse, opportunity talent, and under-represented talent channels for full-time and contingent roles. Available in the United States, the Diversity & Inclusion solution provides companies with consulting, training, and staffing services to help create a more diverse workforce and ensure talent success.

“When companies prioritize hiring a diverse and inclusive workforce, they see a 21 percent improvement in financial performance,” said Kathy Hardy, vice president, Kelly Discover. “Kelly Discover merges technology, deep customer understanding, and dedicated resources (such as coaching and more) to remove barriers that many face when finding employment.”
The first talent channels of the Kelly Discover program are aimed at opportunity and neurodiverse talent. Opportunity talent includes young people ages 18 to 24 with a high school diploma or a GED, who are not enrolled in school or participating in the labor market. Neurodiverse talent includes selecting and placing individuals on the spectrum who can immediately add value to the corporate work environment. The solution advances the Equity@Work initiative unveiled during a closing bell ceremony at Nasdaq in October by Peter Quigley, president and CEO of Kelly.

“Our company operates in a space of influence at the very center of supply and demand in our labor market,” said Quigley. “We work on both sides of the equation, which puts us in a unique position to help companies and undiscovered talent thrive together.”
Kelly Discover is a partnership with Rangam, a solution powered by SourceAbled, which offers talent and sustainable solutions to ensure clients meet their D&I goals for recruiting and staffing. In addition to Rangam, Kelly is joining forces with Workforce Development groups and other organizations to provide a bridge to the real world of work through pre- and post-hire support. The solution functions as a stand-alone D&I strategy. It can also be integrated into an existing Managed Service Provider (MSP), Recruitment Process Outsourcing (RPO) program or other staffing solutions.
