CREATING JOBS FOR PEOPLE LIKE ME
ONE 10C CONTAINER AT A TIME
Employment barriers
People with disabilities experience various barriers to employment, such as discrimination in the workplace, stigma, prejudice, and stereotypes.
Just over half in labour force
Compared with 84% or 11.8 million without a disability, just over half – 53%, or 1.1 million – working age people with a disability are in the labour force.
Unemployed long-term
In 2017, 29% of long-term unemployed Australians had disabilities. Long-term unemployment on its own puts people at a disadvantage, as they lack recent work experience and references.
