Disability advocates are calling on the government to review the NDIS after new data shows thousands of workers on the NDIS are being underpaid.

 

Just 30 per cent of working people on NDIS are being paid the industry minimum; increasing to 40 per cent for 15 to 24 year olds.

 

Matthew Bowden, from People with Disability Australia said it’s extremely concerning that people with disabilities continue to be forced into situations of poverty because they aren’t being paid fair wages.
