The Northern Territory Government, as a major employer and service provider, has a responsibility to be better equipped to understand and meet the needs of people with disabilities.
Through the Willing and Able Strategy, the Government is committing the NTPS to improving employment conditions for people with disabilities through a variety of initiatives including training programs, partnerships with disability organisations and greater support for staff with disabilities.
The Strategy sets out the issues that all NTPS agencies will need to consider in relation to the employment of people with disabilities and provides a foundation on which they can begin to develop useful resources and information to assist people with disabilities to maximise their potential.
Information on the progress of the Willing and Able Strategy during 2006 is provided in the attached reports to the Minister for Public Employment and Cabinet.
