Andrea has been working at Sheep Stations for 8 months and is a qualified personal care worker as well. She is also well liked by staff and residents.  Both women were encouraged to apply for the position of supervisor by their respective managers. Both applied and neither one was successful. Human Resources told them both that they were unsuitable, and the position was advertised externally. Mary and Andrea asked for feedback from HR so they could improve their skills.

Robyn, the facility manager, tells Hayden they have never had anyone in a wheelchair because the building is old and does not meet current Australian Standards. After several phone calls from Robyn, requests and meetings, head office refuse to make any adjustments to the building or make provisions for Hayden.
