Supports in employment
The NDIS can fund flexible supports to help people with their job-related goals. This support is for participants with higher support needs who need more job-related help than is offered by Disability Employment Services or support that is beyond the scope of reasonable adjustments under discrimination law. For more information on these supports in general or the type of support you can access, refer to the NDIA website (see ‘Contacts’, below).
