Working in the Care and Support sector Engagement Clinic – A Free Event @ On line
Sep 2 @ 11:00 am – 1:00 pm

NESA Peer Clinic

Working in the Care and Support sector Engagement Clinic

Thursday 2 September 2021

11.00am AEST (10.30am SA & NT, and 9.00am WA)

NESA in collaboration with the Boosting the Local Care Workforce Program (BLCW) is holding a free online - Working in the Care and Support Sector Engagement Clinic

WHAT YOU CAN EXPECT

The purpose is to provide you with objection handling tools that you can use, to take your job seekers from the precontemplation stage to action / job placement.

This clinic is focussed on how to overcome the difficult issue of objections, it is at no cost to you (free!) and it will run for approximately 2-hours.

Join Paul Diviny online.

Paul is our objections handling guru, and he will provide you with advice, strategies, confidence and a range of responsive comments that you can add to your objection handling tool kit.

Audience: Anyone can attend, but this is a must for Frontline workers looking to improve their objection handling skills. If after registering you find that you cannot attend, don’t worry, the link to the recording will be emailed to you. 

About the Care and Support sector

The government spend on the NDIS was $21.5 billion in 2019 -2020, and it is increasing to over $30 billion by 2024 -2025. NDIS funds over 16,000 providers to deliver person centred services to over 400,000 people.

This sector is growing, which means that Australia is experiencing a huge demand for workers.

So what does it mean for the workers in the disability support sector?

• Growth means job security !

• Flexibility – works with your family life and other responsibilities – a great work life balance

• Variety – each day is different

• Mobility – get on the road and take your career with you

• Choice of job roles, many of which are level entry (no skills required, just common sense and a healthy attitude) – more than just a desk job !

• The sector loves to teach people on the job, so as your experience increases, new opportunities will open up for you.

• Have a say over how your career progresses


It offers security, grow, flexibility and choice, yet we are still finding it difficult to convince job seekers to work in the care and support sector.

Labour Market Inclusion for Clients with Multiple Barriers

THURS 2 SEPT 2021 | 3.30PM – 5.00PM AEST

We are pleased to announce our second Masterclass for the year as part of our on-line international innovation tour.

This Masterclass will focus on experiences of European Public Employment Services in providing high quality services to their most disadvantaged and vulnerable clients in an era of rapid digitilisation (please see below for the overview from our European colleagues) and will be facilitated by Employment Policy Consultant, Miguel Peromingo.

"This masterclass presents and discusses successful approaches and recent adjustments of PES in the European Union in how to guarantee that none of their clients is left behind."

OVERVIEW

“The Covid-19 pandemic has undoubtedly accelerated the use of digital tools in the labour market and, in many ways, empowered some job-seekers to own their career decisions more, for example by being more involved in job search or decisions on their upskilling. On the other side, growing unemployment/underemployment and persistent lack of digital skills and access has pushed those that were already far from the labour market before the crisis further into low employability and the struggle with multiple barriers such as social and economic challenges, physical and mental health conditions, and impacts of long-term unemployment including lowered self-esteem.

Employment services all over the world face tough decisions on how to service their most vulnerable clients while their service infrastructure for face-to-face contacts is being dismantled in favour of more digital access. Hybrid models are a walkable path, but only if they are paired with client-focused case management and a clear nod towards digital skills training.

This masterclass presents and discusses successful approaches and recent adjustments of PES in the European Union in how to guarantee that none of their clients is left behind.”

POST PLACEMENT SUPPORT WEBINAR: IS IT JUST A CONTACT CALL OR ARE WE GATHERING REAL INTELLIGENCE?

Monday 6 September 2021

2.00pm AEST (1.30pm SA & NT, and 12 noon in WA)

TARGET GROUP

All Frontline staff

SUMMARY

Post Placement Support (PPS) is a great way of gathering intelligence that can drive a strong plan to ensure job seekers maximise their sustainable employment opportunity. This task should not be a “tick a box” exercise. It is a critical step to ensure we are identifying any red flags that exist in the early stages of employment and acting upon them accordingly. If performed correctly, PPS will be seen as a genuine value-add to your employer’s customer service experience and will provide a support mechanism for the new employee as they enter into a new environment.

WHAT YOU CAN EXPECT

  • Be Prepared – Go in with a plan that is tailored to the employee
  • Transparency and Clarity – Is the Employer / Employee clear on the benefits of spending the time to answer these questions?
  • Communication – How to identify concerns by listening to words and intonation
  • Action Plans – How to record and escalate information to the appropriate person

Understanding and Implementing Mutual Obligation @ Online broadcast
Sep 9 @ 2:00 pm – 3:30 pm

UNDERSTANDING AND IMPLEMENTING MUTUAL OBLIGATION

Thursday 9 September 2021

2.00pm AEST (1.30pm SA & NT, and 12 noon WA)

TARGET GROUP

Frontline staff

SUMMARY

‘Mutual obligation’ is based on the concept of a ‘contract’ between a job seeker and the society that supports them with income support and employment services. Society offers income support and employment services. In return, there is a requirement that a job seeker will be doing all they can to find work and to work through the issues that may hold them back. In this session we’ll look at what mutual obligation means to the different groups of job seekers that we work with, and look at some ‘top tips’ when working with job seekers and their mutual obligation requirements.

WHAT YOU CAN EXPECT TO HEAR ABOUT

  • Why most job seekers will have a Mutual Obligation requirement (the rationale)
  • How a job seeker’s requirement is determined by a number of factors – such as age, PCP and PCW
  • How there are more specific requirements for Early School Leavers
  • How you can progress Mutual Obligations through the Job Plan
  • The Points Based Activation System and how this will build additional flexibility into how a job seeker can meet their Mutual Obligation.
