Long term disability support

At MAX we know that in the right job with the right support, people with disability can reach their full potential and achieve many things in their workplace.

There may be a combination of health factors that affect your ability to work. Understanding your disability requires connection and trust. At MAX, we listen to your story and make sure we understand your strengths, goals, likes and dislikes, as well as what limitations exist in your personal situation. This helps us work with employers to find the right work for you combined with the right level of support.

About the Employment Support Service (ESS)

Under Disability Employment Services, the Employment Support Service is available for those with long term disability who need regular, ongoing support to keep a job.

To access this service you will need to have an assessment called an Employment Services Assessment (ESAt) or Job Capacity Assessment (JCA) whilst meeting all the eligibility requirements. If you are receiving Centrelink payments from the Department of Human Services, you will be referred for this assessment.
