Vocational Rehabilitation Services assist people who have a disability, injury or health condition to work independently in the open labour market.
Vocational Rehabilitation Services also directly assist employers to employ a person whose skills and abilities match their job requirements and support the employer and the successful applicant in the new role. Vocational Rehabilitation Services can also assist employees who are already in work but who are experiencing difficulty maintaining employment.
Contacting Vocational Rehabilitation Services
You may choose to contact a local Vocational Rehabilitation Services provider directly for assistance or, if you are a large employer, you may prefer to access services through the National Disability Recruitment Coordinator.

Access to the National Disability Recruitment Coordinator
If you are a larger employer or a multi-site employer, you might find it difficult to deal with numerous localised employment services when recruiting your staff in bulk. The National Disability Recruitment Coordinator offers a single point of contact for the recruitment of staff with disability. The Coordinator is able to link you with Vocational Rehabilitation Services and help you establish a working relationship with them.
