Queensland Tourism Talks
Inclusive recruitment in tourism
The Igniting Accessible Experiences podcast series, produced in partnership with Get Skilled Access, helps Queensland tourism operators make their services more accessible and inclusive.
"People with disability want to succeed and have careers just like everyone else."
Ben Pettingill and Bridie McKim are joined by Steph Agnew, who is blind and an inclusion consultant, to discuss inclusive recruitment within the tourism industry.
The team discusses the benefits of hiring people with disability, misconceptions about hiring them, unintentional barriers, maintaining an open mindset, and making workplace adjustments.
Tune in to more episodes as Ben and Bridie chat with people with disability and tourism operators to uncover learnings from both perspectives on experiencing and providing accessible tourism.
