VERTEX, which employs more than 1,000 people in Manchester Road, Bolton, has been presented with the Positive about Disabled People Symbol.
The Manchester-based company was established in 1996 by parent company United Utilities.
It signed-up to five commitments to receive the Symbol, including a company guarantee to interview all disabled applicants who meet the minimum criteria for job vacancies.
The company can now display the instantly recognisable "two ticks" emblem in its reception area and on official stationery.
Employers who wish to know more about becoming a Disability Symbol user can contact Employment Service Disability Employment Adviser Annie Bennett on 0161-253-3200.
