Hard work & perseverance resulted in employment for Mitch.
Scott, who runs SMP Fabrication in Wauchope, was looking for a steel fabricator welder.
TURSA had been in regular contact with Scott and recommended Mitchell for a job. Scott had some concerns as the job available was hard work and at the lower end of the pay scale. He offered Mitch to come and try out. Mitch showed a great work ethic and enthusiasm. As a result, Scott was impressed and decided to support Mitch with a casual position.
This was all Mitch needed to motivate him. TURSA further supported Mitchell by providing him with clothing and some welding gear.

With his hard work and determination, Mitchell could potentially have sustained employment at SMP Fabrication.
Scott is happy TURSA helped in finding a dedicated employee, and Mitchell is grateful for the opportunity to work in a job he enjoys.
“I had to make a choice and not working was no longer an option. I was prepared to put in the hard work.”
Mitch being long term unemployed, had struggled to find job prospects due to personal and financial difficulties. He had lost his license and had to pay for car registration and other expenses. This presented additional challenges as jobs often required transport.
