JOB SPOTLIGHT
ASSEMBLER, GENERAL
Employee’s Perspective
Sandra Romkey
LCI is integrated and competitive. [We] offer great benefits, upward mobility, and training – there is no reason why anybody in our company who is blind or visually impaired cannot do a job that a sighted person can do. When someone starts in a new position, we ask: what platforms are they going to use? Are they comfortable? What kind of accessibility equipment may this person need? We want to make sure [we’re] setting that person up for success.
