Research on Disability Employment in the Victorian Disability Sector
Are disability organisations leading from the front when it comes to the employment of people with disabilities?
A research report investigating employment practices of the Victorian disability sector commissioned by Australians for Disability and Diversity Employment was launched on Monday 18 August 2008 at the Victorian Equal Opportunities and Human Rights Commission, Level 3, 380 Lonsdale Street, Melbourne.
The keynote speakers were Suzanne Colbert, CEO of the Australian Employers Network on Disability, who spoke by video link, and Cath Smith, VCOSS CEO.
The report identifies a number of best practice measures that the disability sector could adopt to increase the participation of people with disabilities in employment.
