About JobAccess
JobAccess provides free, confidential and accessible information and advice through the JobAccess website and a telephone advice line. It offers help and workplace solutions for people with disability and employers.
JobAccess also plays a coordinating role with the National Panel of Assessors to conduct free workplace assessment and advise on workplace modifications and support which may be eligible for reimbursement through the Employment Assistance Fund(Opens external website) (EAF).
The EAF gives financial help to eligible people with disability and mental health conditions and their employers to buy work-related modifications, equipment, Auslan (Australian Sign Language) services and workplace assistance and support services. The EAF is available to eligible people with disability who are about to start a job, are self-employed or who are currently working. It is also available to people with disability who need Auslan assistance or special work equipment to look for and prepare for a job.
Under JobAccess, a National Disability Recruitment Coordinator(Opens external website) (NDRC) can offer assistance to employers across Australia to:
- increase their knowledge of support available through DES
- implement employment practices
- provider disability and training for staff.
