Hiring someone with a disability, injury or mental health condition can add talent, valuable experience and diversity to your business. It can lead to reduced turnover, stronger workplace morale and demonstrates your corporate social responsibility. As part of our service, we can also provide the following at no cost:

- Workplace modifications where necessary, such as adaptive equipment to offices or vehicles.
- Mentoring and support for six months to employees and employers.
Mature Aged
Are you looking for dependable staff that are dedicated to the job and take pride in their work? Mature aged workers not only have many years of experience and knowledge, but can deliver your business a great return on investment. Mature aged workers can improve your business processes, fill knowledge gaps and mentor less experienced employees. Workskil Australia also deliver Career Transition Assistance, which supports people who are 45 years or older to build skills for the modern workforce.
Ex-Offenders
The Work Ready, Release Ready program supports prisoners in South Australia prepare for employment in time for their release, with the aim of reducing the rate of reoffending. Your business can benefit from a pool of trained, engaged and job ready candidates. Inmates are supported to understand what is expected in the workplace and enhance their skills, attitudes and the behaviours required to make a successful transition to work.
