Unlock new opportunities with the support of a caring Disability Employment specialist.
When your life has been affected by an illness, injury, or other health condition (including anxiety or depression), finding meaningful employment can be a challenge. Job seekers in Sydney and all across Australia have struggled to find a workplace that suits their goals, aspirations, and capabilities – let alone one that can support them in the long term.
To combat this challenge, the Australian government has put various initiatives in place. Disability Employment Services (DES) is a tailored service designed to help job seekers find a career they love and can keep. Through a personal employment assessment, DES providers can match clients with a job plan that can best support their employment goals. Whether you have a permanent disability or are struggling to get back into work after a recent injury, these services can offer crucial support and assistance.
Breakthru have various office locations across Sydney where you can meet our supportive team members in person to discuss your situation and complete your assessments. These office locations are in Parramatta, Campsie, Hornsby, Maroubra, Bankstown, Belmore, Raymond Terrace and Fortitude Valley.
Finding a job can be difficult at the best of times, but especially so when you need to also manage ongoing physical or mental health conditions, but you don’t need to take on this journey alone. Disability Employment Service (DES) providers like Breakthru exist to help individuals find and keep a job that they love. Whether you’re starting a fresh new career or returning to work after time away, a DES provider will be able to offer essential assistance.
Here at Breakthru, we utilise over 30 years of experience across our team to help people just like you. If you’re living with an injury, illness, or disability and want to find a job you’re passionate about, we want to help. With strong connections with various employers across Sydney, our Disability Employment Services are designed to let job seekers try out workplaces that could support them.
For anyone needing help improving their mental health, managing anxiety, or transitioning into a new job, the support of an experienced DES provider can make a world of difference.
Disability Employment Services (DES) is a program funded by the Australian government to support people with a disability, injury, illness, or mental health condition. These services are designed to help individuals prepare for, find, and maintain meaningful employment. Providers such as Breakthru are contracted by the Australian Government Department of Social Services to support communities in cities such as Sydney.
There are several criteria you must meet to be eligible for DES services. Services Australia (previously known as Centrelink) will be able to give you a referral if you qualify, or you will be able to apply directly to the Breakthru team.
