100,000 enquiries for JobAccess

The Australian Government's JobAccess service has announced a growing demand for its services, with over 100,000 enquires from employers and people with disability and mental health conditions. 

JobAccess is a free-of-charge service that provides expert advice and other assistance that connects people with disability, employers and other job support services. JobAccess is delivered by WorkFocus Australia under Government contract. 

Minister for Employment Participation and Child Care, Kate Ellis congratulated JobAccess on achieving this significant milestone.  

“Opening the workplace up to people with disability makes good business sense in terms of productivity, safety outcomes and profits and it allows employers to tap into a workforce they may not have considered before.” Ms Ellis said.
