How Our Disability Employment Services Nambour Team Works with Participants

We’re dedicated to you

We operate on a participant-centred model. Our Nambour disability employment services are carefully tailored to fit the goals, needs, and unique circumstances of each individual.

Where possible, participants will be assigned a dedicated Nambour Disability Employment Advocate. Participants will be able to work with and identify a plan with easy communication, ongoing support, and one-on-one appointments.

With ongoing support

Mutual respect and open communication is at the heart of our approach. To help participants achieve their goals, they will be driving the decision-making process the whole way. Being flexible, we will adjust services based on feedback and evolving needs.

We help you find and keep longtime employment

We look at what each person is best at and what their goals are in the workforce. We set goals based on this, then offer various types of support, like job training and resume help, to meet these needs. We can also assist with interviews and connecting you to potential employers.

Furthermore, we provide ongoing support even after a participant secures a job. Participants will receive on-the-job support for 52 weeks. This support will help them adapt to their new roles and overcome challenges they face.
