Canberra Research Update: Disability Data at Work
October 31 @ 2:30 pm - 4:00 pm AEDT
Free
Join us in Canberra to hear how collecting disability data enables organisations to understand the mix of people in their workplace and the inclusion and exclusion experiences of employees with disability and how this helps to make informed decisions about accessibility, monitor progress, and drive positive change that supports inclusion.
This in-person event will be hosted and emceed by Helena Stevens (she/her), Assistant Director, Learning and Career Pathways, Australian Digital Health Agency (ADHA).
Amy Whalley (she/her), CEO of the Australian Disability Network, will present the findings from DCA and Australian Disability Network’s joint report – Disability Data at Work. The presentation will explore the key insights from the report, which sheds light on the workplace experiences of people with disability and outlines essential strategies for fostering workplace environments where employees feel safe to share their disability without fear of repercussions.
Following the presentation, DCA CEO, Catherine Hunter (she/her), will lead a discussion with our guest panel to explore the critical role capturing disability data has in cultivating inclusive workplaces where all employees can thrive.
Our guest panel includes:
- Damian Griffis (he/him), CEO, First Peoples Disability Network
- Amy Whalley (she/her), CEO, Australian Disability Network
The event runs from 2.30pm – 4:00pm followed by networking and refreshments till 4.30pm AEDT.
