Employable Me is a Canadian television documentary series, which features job-seekers determined to show that having a physical disability or neurological condition shouldn't make them unemployable.[1]

Based on a British series which aired on BBC Two,[2] the Canadian series is produced by Thomas Howe and Associates. It premiered August 11, 2017 on AMI-tv,[3] and November 2, 2017 on TVOntario.

The series was renewed for a second season which aired in 2018,[4] and for a third season which aired in 2019.[5]

Employable Me won MIPCOM's Diversify TV's Excellence Award for representation of disability: non-scripted, in Cannes on October 17, 2017,[6] and the Rockie Award at the 2018 Banff World Media Festival.[7] The show has received three Canadian Screen Award nominations for Best Factual Series, at the 6th Canadian Screen Awards in 2018[8] the 7th Canadian Screen Awards in 2019[9] and the 8th Canadian Screen Awards in 2020.
