The Governments of Australia and many private organisations work together to ensure equal employment opportunities for people with disabilities.

Some people with disabilities may require support or assistance to find an appropriate form of employment.

Assistance is available to:

• help determine job interests and suitable types of employment
• search for relevant jobs
• prepare for job interviews
• assist with understanding of employment conditions
• provide ongoing support

Some people with higher levels of disability may prefer to work in special businesses that offer more intensive support.

Making sure that the workplace is accessible for employees with physical disabilities is a responsibility of all employers.
