Workplace assessments
Workplace assessments can identify and remove barriers in the workplace for people with disability. Professional workplace assessors provide expert advice on workplace adjustment, equipment and modifications. The Department of Education, Employment and Workplace Relations has established a panel of workplace assessors for easy access to qualified professionals.
As part of the Workplace Modifications Scheme, the JobAccess Advisers will assess the need for an workplace assessment for eligible employees with disability and can arrange a free assessment on your behalf.
Workplace modifications
The Workplace Modifications Scheme pays for the costs involved in modifying the workplace or purchasing special equipment for new employees with disability. It is also available to existing employees if they have a change in duties, career progression, change in disability or a new modification becomes available that would increase their productivity.
Contact the JobAccess Advisers on 1800 464 800 to see if you are eligible for assistance under the Scheme.
