Australian Disability Enterprises enable people with disability to engage in a wide variety of work tasks such as packaging, assembly, production, recycling, screen printing, plant nursery, garden maintenance and landscaping, cleaning services, laundry services and food services.
There are over 600 Australian Disability Enterprises Australia-wide, providing real work for more than 20,000 people with disability in a supported environment. Employees of Australian Disability Enterprises enjoy the same working conditions as those in the general workforce.
Australian Disability Enterprises receive funding and support from the Australian Government Department of Families, Housing, Community Services and Indigenous Affairs to recognise their additional operating costs such as employing staff to support their employees with disability.
Purchasing from an Australian Disability Enterprise is more than just good business.
