Employment opportunities for people with disabilities in Indonesia remain a major issue. Only 720,748 out of 22.97 million people with disabilities were employed in 2022, demonstrating the limited job opportunities for this group.
The presence of Starbucks Signing Store has created job opportunities for individuals who are deaf. This study aims to understand the communication strategies used by Starbucks Signing Store in bridging the interaction gap between deaf and hearing individuals. The research employs a qualitative method with a case study approach. The findings indicate that the communication strategies used to address the communication gap between deaf and hearing individuals include identifying communication targets, selecting appropriate communication media, evaluating the
purpose of communication messages, and the role of communicators in the communication process.
