What is Employment Supports?

This support provides workplace assistance that enables a participant to successfully obtain or retain employment in the open or supported labour market. This support can be supplied to any working age participant (including students reaching working age) with an employment goal. This may include supports to:

• Explore what work would mean for you (discovery)

• Build essential foundation skills for work

• Managing complex barriers to obtaining and sustaining employment;

• Specialised job creation

• Supports to transition from an Australian Disability Enterprise (ADE) to open employment;

• Develop a career plan

• Other capacity building supports that are likely to lead to successful engagement in a Disability Employment Service (DES).
