The latest report from the Workplace Gender Equality Agency (WGEA) shows an almost non-existent pay gap, a rare achievement in the social services sector. In 2023–24, Community Living Australia (now Livit Disability Support) recorded a median pay gap of just -0.7% for base salary and -0.4% for total remuneration, showing that women and men are paid fairly across roles.
At Livit Disability Support, fair pay is more than just numbers, it reflects how much we value everyone’s contribution. From our leaders to our support staff, we want every team member to feel respected, supported, and recognised. Creating a workplace where people can grow, succeed, and do their best work is at the heart of what we do.
“This achievement reflects our deep commitment to equity,” said Director of People & Culture, Nicole. “Ensuring fair pay is about recognising the value of every individual and fostering a culture of respect and opportunity.”

Most team members are paid according to the industry award, while others receive market-aligned rates as relevant to their role. This approach ensures everyone is treated and compensated fairly. The WGEA report confirms Livit Disability Support’s commitment to fairness, equality, and building a workplace where everyone is valued and supported.
