Common examples include national healthcare systems, educational institutions, or companies headquartered and operating primarily in one country and with large, decentralized structures.

Choose this option to assess disability inclusion within a single jurisdiction or policy context. Ideal for organizations whose practices vary by country, this level allows for separate submissions that provide localized insights and internal benchmarked comparisons across markets.
Each submission must represent at least 500 employees.
