Toitū te Waiora Workforce Development Council is committed to improving employment outcomes for disabled people. We know disabled people are working in the industries we support, and that many more disabled people would like to be part of the workforce.
‘Here’ is a project to capture the experiences of disabled people in the workforce, focusing on what has enabled them to participate as well as the barriers they have experienced in employment.
The interviews we’re sharing are intended to help employers think about how they can best support disabled employees, ensuring they have the tools to enable all employees to participate in the workplace to their fullest capacity.
