Employers' Disability Network
Including people with disabilities in all aspects of business
The Employers Disability Network is a not-for-profit network of organisations sharing best practice on working with disability in all areas of business.
This site is a source of news, best practice advice and resources for the business community to better employ disabled people and serve disabled customers.
Innovation and lasting change are possible when employers and disabled people work together.
A message from our patron Dr. Roderick Deane
People with disabilities, like all of us, want to build on their talents and live full lives in the community. To do this, they need jobs.
The Employers' Disability Network is a group of employers dedicated to ensuring that people with disabilities get the same opportunities in life as the rest of us and, in particular, have access to jobs and work.
The Network aims to help employers understand ways in which jobs can be created for people with disabilities and to encourage welcoming and accepting attitudes to those with disabilities.
The Network believes that disability is simply part of the diversity of our society and that people with disabilities should not be disadvantaged in seeking work but rather be positively encouraged to do so. For this to happen, employers must have a welcoming and inclusive culture.
The Network aims to encourage and foster this sort of positive attitude and make it work in practice throughout New Zealand.
