Disability Sector Employment

The Hon. K.L. VINCENT (15:09): One last question: has the government done any work in identifying areas where ex-Holden workers could use their existing skills, such as in the manufacturing of disability equipment and disability assistance aids?

The Hon. G.E. GAGO (Minister for Employment, Higher Education and Skills, Minister for Science and Information Economy, Minister for the Status of Women, Minister for Business Services and Consumers) (15:09): Again, we are encouraging not just Holden workers but any worker who is facing retraining or retrenchment to consider the range of career pathways that are available to them, and information about the sort of training that might assist them to reach those aspirations.
