Paid work can be a pathway to independence, purpose, and connection — but Australians with disability are far less likely to be employed than everyone else, especially those with high support needs. Many who do work are paid well below the minimum wage, some as little as $3.31 an hour.

How do we build a system for disabled workers that opens up better jobs and fairer wages?

In this podcast, Grattan Associate Ben Jefferson talks to Grattan Disability Program Director Sam Bennett and Senior Associate Owain Emslie about our report, Opening doors: Better jobs and fairer wages for disabled workers, which sets out a pragmatic path to better employment outcomes for disabled people with high support needs — while ensuring no one is left behind.

Australians visit the pharmacy more than any other health service. But what's happening behind the scenes? How does the price you pay at the counter get set? How's the pharmacy sector funded?

For years, decisions about pharmacy policy have been made through closed-door negotiations.

In this podcast, Grattan Associate Reilly Polaschek talks to Grattan Health Program Director Peter Breadon about our report, Future pharmacy: A better deal for patients and taxpayers which charts a path to a fairer, more efficient pharmacy sector.
