Welcome to Access Industries for the Disabled Ltd.
Access Industries is a not for profit registered charity that has
been in operation for more than 60 years. Our mission is to provide employment
opportunities for people with disabilities, either through direct employment in
one of our three factory divisions (located at Seven Hills, Newcastle and
Lithgow), or in the open labour market with on-going support through our Equal
Access Employment Service, based at Campsie.
At Access Industries we strive to provide an environment in which
people with disabilities can learn new tasks that develop both their work and
general life skills, and increase their personal and financial
independence.Today, Access Industries is one of the largest operations of its
kind in Australia.
Through our factory divisions we provide real employment
opportunities for over 250 people with disabilities. In order to provide these
opportunities we undertake a wide variety of sub-contract activities on behalf
of our many valued business customers: several of whom are considered as "blue
chip" companies within their own industry.
In addition the organisation operates an Employment Placement
Service which assists close to 160 people with disabilities through
our Equal Access Employment Service. This service provides a high quality
recruitment service to many employers within the community.
We hope you find our web site informative, and that one day we can
become a supportive partner in meeting your personal or business needs.
