The Six Principles of Supported Employment...

1. Open Employment

   The employment and inclusion of people with disability in the mainstream workforce.

2. Wages & Benefits

   The provision of the same wages and related conditions of employment that are the expected norm in any mainstream workplace.

3. Placement First

   Direct access to the labour market through a precise job/person match and without prolonged “getting ready” activities or training.

4. Inclusiveness

   No exclusions or screening from supported employment programmes on the basis of perceived “severity” of disability.

5. Individualised ongoing support

   Support services and strategies that are not time limited but are tailored to the individuals needs, and maximise job retention.

6. Choices and Career Development

   Services and outcomes based on the preferences and aspirations of the individual and a commitment to ongoing pursuit of careers.
