SINGAPORE: A fall from height in June 2018 left J P Thanumadhya with multiple fractures in her spine, pelvis and ankles.
“I can still , just not standing stationary at one place. Other than that I can do normal stuff. So I was actually a bit sad that I couldn't get that kind of job,” she said.She wanted to find work so she could be independent and depend less on her family members, especially since she has younger siblings her parents need to look after.
Ms Thanumadhya is one of two disabled individuals working at Certis, best known for its auxiliary policing services, under the security firm’s new disability campaign called"Breaking Barriers" launched on Wednesday . Certis’ senior vice-president and head of group human resources, corporate planning, communications and marketing Tan Toi Chia said his organisation had been working with SPD for about two years as part of its corporate social responsibility programme, and were discussing how they could work with each other.
The former sundry goods company manager suffered a stroke in May 2017 that affected the left side of his body. This includes finding Ms Thanumadhya and Mr Loo fixed positions elsewhere in Certis once the call centre operations end.
