Disability Sector Remains Suspicious Over Employment Taskforce

The federal government has unveiled a joint employment taskforce to tackle high rates of disability unemployment, but service providers have raised concerns about whether enough is being done to include people with disability in open employment opportunities.

Minister for Social Services, Paul Fletcher, and Assistant Minister for Social Services, Sarah Henderson, announced the scheme on Sunday and said the taskforce would include National Disability Insurance Scheme participant representatives, employment service providers and related organisations.
