A Message From our CEO


Welcome to the web site for Access Industries for the Disabled Ltd

Access Industries is a not for profit registered charity that has been in operation for more than 58 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 290 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.

On average, a further 150 people receive support each year 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.
