The awards ceremony took place at the Presidential Palace in Santiago with Chilean President Michelle Bachelet and the Labor and Planning Ministers presiding. Only two other Chilean companies received similar awards. The International Day for the Handicapped recognizes companies that have adopted a policy of hiring disabled persons. A determining factor of the award recipients was the consistent application of this policy as part of their hiring practices. Several years ago, Brink’s Chile embarked on a mission to increase effi ciency by building a solid framework for improved hiring practices and profi les. As a result, the company hired 10 deaf tellers on a trial basis for its money processing room. The positive results were tremendous and encouraged Brink’s Chile to hire additional tellers with similar hearing impairments. Productivity increased and the deaf employees contributed to high levels of company dedication, customer loyalty and a positive work atmosphere. Today, Brink’s Chile employs 19 tellers with impaired hearing. Brink’s Chile is extremely proud of this national recognition by the nation’s President. This award places Brink’s Chile among the top cadre of companies that practice corporate social responsibility. Brink’s Chile CEO Hernán Isotta plans to implement similar initiatives in the future that both add value to the business and give back to the community.
