Fifteen committed businesses from Queensland and South Australia were announced diversity winners at CRS Australia’s recent Queensland Employer Awards and South Australia Partnership Breakfast.

Queensland employers were presented their awards at the annual Queensland Employer Awards event on Monday 5 September while winning South Australian businesses were recognised at a breakfast ceremony held in Adelaide on Thursday 8 September.

Winning employers were selected based on their creativity, innovation and commitment to providing training and employment opportunities for people with a disability, injury or health condition.
