Disability Employment Services (DES) are crucial government-funded initiatives aimed at assisting people with disabilities, injuries, or health conditions in finding and maintaining employment. Mission Australia, renowned for its extensive experience and unwavering
commitment to community service, excels in delivering DES, including Disability Management Services (DMS).
Within the DES framework, DMS plays a pivotal role. Specifically, Mission Australia’s DMS supports individuals living with temporary disabilities, injuries, or health conditions in preparing for, securing, and maintaining employment. This program offers comprehensive services, including job search assistance, resume writing, interview preparation, workplace modifications, and post-placement support, facilitating a successful transition into the workforce.

employment journey.

The organisation actively engages with businesses to promote inclusive hiring practices and foster a supportive work environment. Mission Australia’s team provides continuous guidance and training to employers, helping them understand the benefits of a diverse workforce and how to effectively accommodate employees living with disabilities.
