Employer Confidence builds better businesses
Employing people with disability can help create a stronger workplace culture, strengthen recruitment and retention opportunities, and enhance your business’ community image.
One in five Australians of working age are living with disability, but only 48% of them are employed compared to 80% of the rest of the population.
Despite this, employees with disability are more likely to stick around for longer, take fewer sick days, provide unique perspectives, enhance collaboration, and promote a culture of problem-solving.
We can help you create an inclusive workplace.
We aim to retain and grow employment opportunities for people living with disability and mental ill-health by working with employers to build their knowledge of disability and erase myths and uncertainty. By increasing employers’ understanding we help businesses discover the benefits that people with disability can bring to their business.
We work with employers and their staff to create inclusive workplaces focusing on a person’s abilities and potential, identifying any barriers or modifications required to help people with a disability to be successful in their employment.
