Employment Services Specialist : Workforce Australia, Disability Employment Services, Labour Hire, Vocational Education.

The addition of #HelpEnterprises to the #IntoWork group allowed senior leaders from WA, Tasmania, Victoria and New Zealand experience CEO Denver Fresser talk passionately about the history and impact that Help enterprises has on the Brisbane economy, supporting people with a disability lead their most fulfilling lives. Help’s Eagle Farm facilities were showcased to the EELP group last week. We all got to experience a tour through the sheds and engaged with the employees, learnt the mechanics of commercial production and saw what purchase for #purpose means. Helps alignment to IntoWorks ethos around integrated Employment, Education & Training and Support services was seen when we got a sneak peak at some of the incredible products the team produce, assemble and pack. We saw everything from clothing, metal construction in latterboxes and bin covers, bathroom vanities, Ekka showbags (and my favourite) the chip line! I have a very personal connection to supported employment and wholeheartedly believe it’s a critically important option for many seeking to fulfil their potential in a safe and meaningful way allowing a persons ability to be showcased in a work environment. Denver’s passion to ensure that Help is a stepping stone to open employment left a lasting impression on us all and opened my mind to how we can support the training and qualification pathways for these incredibly talented workers! #VibrantFutures #OneDoorToMany #Disability #SocialEnterprise #NationalLeaders #SiteTour #PurchaseWithPurpose #SupportedEmployment #DisabilityEmployment #NDIS #NFP
