Employment

Our next kōrero is focused on employment because everyone deserves the opportunity to thrive in the workplace. Employment accessibility and inclusion for people with disabilities are essential for building a fair and equitable society. An inclusive workforce not only provides equal opportunities but also fosters diverse perspectives, innovation, and stronger communities. Barriers to employment, whether physical, digital, or attitudinal, limit potential and exclude talented individuals who have valuable skills to contribute. By ensuring workplaces are accessible, from recruitment to career development, we create environments where everyone can thrive. Accessibility isn’t just about compliance, it’s about recognising that inclusion benefits businesses, employees, and society as a whole. When workplaces are truly inclusive, we move closer to a world where ability, not disability, defines opportunity.

Join this important kōrero as we collaborate with businesses, organisations, government, and recruitment agencies to explore actionable steps toward inclusive and accessible workplaces in Aotearoa New Zealand.
