GUIDE

Attracting and recruiting people with disability to your organisation

This guide provides information on how to attract people with disability to your organisation by:

  • demonstrating a commitment to accessibility and inclusion as organisational values
  • outlining ways to proactively connect with candidates with disability
  • establishing accessible and inclusive recruitment practices.

People with disability have a wide range of experiences, skills, abilities and qualifications to bring to the workplace, work in a wide range of jobs across all levels, including entry level, middle management and senior leadership roles.[1]

Australian and international studies have found that people with disability are reliable and productive employees, have fewer workplace accidents than employees without a disability and take fewer sick days.
