Australian Network On Disability

OUR PURPOSE To advance the equitable inclusion of people with disability in all aspects of business OUR VISION To be recognised as the peak employer body helping to create a disability confident Australia OUR MISSION To provide expert advice and services on disability to employers, Government representatives and industry bodies The Australian Network on Disability (AND) is a not for profit organisation funded by its members to take a leadership role in advancing the equitable inclusion of people with disability in all aspects of business. We assist our members to reap the business benefits of employing people with disability, and welcoming customers with disability. We are not an employment agency and do not find jobs for people with disability - we work on the employer-side to improve internal systems and procedures to ensure they are accessible to people with a wide range of disabilities. Approximately 20% of the Australian population has a disability - that's one in every five people in Australia. Ensuring your organisation is disability confident isn't just the "right thing to do" - it also makes very good business sense. Through the delivery of unique products and services, we assist organisations to build skills and confidence in relation to people with disability as employees, customers and other stakeholders. We work closely with our member organisations to assist them to build their individual business case for proactively including people with disability.
