How The Personnel Group Can Help You Benefit from NDIS Employment Assistance

NDIS employment assistance is a part of the National Disability Insurance Scheme’s capacity-building supports, specifically tailored to help individuals with disabilities prepare for, find, and maintain meaningful employment. Employment can be a powerful way for individuals to enhance their independence, sense of purpose, and overall well-being.

However, the journey to securing a job isn’t always straightforward, especially for those with unique challenges due to disability.

At The Personnel Group, we’re here to make sure that people with disabilities have the tools, resources, and encouragement to find work that suits their skills and aspirations.

In this article, we’ll break down what employment assistance is and how we help individuals build confidence, develop essential skills, and, ultimately, land jobs that make a difference in their lives.

What Is NDIS Employment Assistance?

Generally, employment assistance program under the NDIS is a type of support that helps people with disabilities prepare for, find, and stay in meaningful jobs. The program offers a wide range of services that aim to equip participants with everything they need to access employment opportunities and succeed in the workforce—from practical skills to emotional support.

Here’s a closer look at some of the key areas of NDIS employment assistance.

Capacity Building Employment Assistance

Starting with capacity building, this type of assistance focuses on getting participants job-ready. It’s all about helping people gain the skills, knowledge, and confidence to explore work opportunities.

Participants learn workplace basics like communication, time management, and organisation. By focusing on these foundational skills, capacity building helps individuals approach the job market with a strong toolkit and a positive mindset.

Employment Support from Providers

Support providers work closely with NDIS participants to develop tailored employment assistance plans that align with their unique strengths and aspirations. Think of it as creating a roadmap to help participants explore their career options, gain work experience, and practice the skills they’ll need on the job.

Here at The Personnel Group, our team provides coaching and guidance, ensuring participants feel supported and confident at every step. From preparing resumes to one-on-one job coaching, we offer hands-on support that makes a big difference in the lives of the participants.

Employment Assistance for School Leavers (SLES)

The transition from school to employment is a big step for any young person, but it can be especially challenging for those with disabilities. Employment assistance for school leavers, also known as NDIS School Leaver Employment Support, is designed to make this change smoother.

For school leavers with learning, social, or self-management challenges, the NDIS offers training and guidance to develop workplace skills and build the confidence they’ll need to enter the workforce. With tailored support, young people can learn how to navigate the world of work and start their career journey feeling empowered and prepared.

Employment Assistance for Other NDIS Participants

Employment assistance is available for participants at any stage of life, helping people build the skills they may have missed out on earlier in their lives.

This support can include everything from vocational training to basic job-search skills, giving adults with disabilities the chance to gain independence, take on new challenges, and find roles that match their goals.
