AddressAbout Access Industries
We are a registered charitable organisation providing employment services for people with disabilities, otherwise known as an Australian Disability Enterprise (ADE).
As part of its commitment to providing quality services, Access Industries employs skilled Training Officers and Welfare Officers to provide or organise additional training and support for its supported employees (i.e. employees who have a disability). This enables supported employees to optimise their work potential and personal skills, and for those wishing to do so, helps to prepare them to move on into open employment.
We offer long term stable employment with some of our employees having up to 50 years of service.
