Sometimes they are called ‘equal opportunity measures’, but for the purposes of the Guidelines they will be referred to generally as ‘special measures’. 5 Section 67(1)(k) of the Disability Discrimination Act 1992 (Cth) provides for the Commission to prepare, and to publish in such manner as the Commission considers appropriate, guidelines for the avoidance of discrimination on the ground of disability. 6 NSW Government, ‘I work for NSW’: Assistant Project Officer (Clerk Grade 5/6) – Disability targeted process, undated.
