Part 3 - Better practice strategies

In its 2006 report Employment of People with Disability in the APS63 the Management Advisory Committee (MAC) formulated a series of objectives to support the employment of people with disability in the APS, and identified a number of better practice strategies that individual agencies might consider in meeting them.

Using the framework that those objectives provide, this part of the toolkit provides examples of strategies and practical initiatives that agencies can implement to improve the way that they recruit, retain, and develop employees with disability.

The examples of strategies and initiatives by particular APS agencies referred to in the section are drawn primarily from those agencies that participated in the evaluation that led to the development of this toolkit.

A checklist of strategies for HR professionals is included at Appendix A.
