Overview
A Disability Action Plan provides a mechanism for coordinating an agency's efforts to meet its responsibilities under the Commonwealth Disability Strategy regarding equity, inclusion, participation, access and, in particular, accountability. The Commonwealth Disability Strategy is about ensuring that everyone, regardless of their disability, is able to access the services that are available to the general Australian population.
A Disability Action Plan also provides a mechanism for ensuring that in all areas of employment practice and recruitment the agency meets its obligations towards staff members and prospective staff members who have a disability.
