An estimated 1.3 billion people globally live with some form of disability, representing 16% of the world’s population . 80% of disabilities are acquired between the ages of 18 and 64 – the workforce age . Disability crosses all demographics – including age, gender, sexual orientation, socio-economic and multicultural origins.

Specifically, L'Oréal is accelerating disability inclusion, addressing both visible and invisible disabilities, mental health, chronic illness, and neurodiversity.
