What is “Finding and Keeping a Job” Under NDIS?
Under the National Disability Insurance Scheme (NDIS), people with disabilities can be helped to find secure paid employment and successfully keep it.
Participants in an NDIS Finding and Keeping a Job or Employment Assistance programme can get help with:
- Exploring job roles that appeal to their interests and complement their skillset.
- Networking and resume building.
- Accessing on-the-job coaching for long-term success.
At Good Company Disability Services, we take a holistic approach, focusing on each client’s strengths and the challenges their disability, mindset, and background pose to develop a plan that helps them succeed in gaining and keeping a job.
Our Approach to Capacity Building Employment
At Good Company Disability Services Perth, we apply proven techniques to help clients find and keep a job. Our team liaises with them in a compassionate and empowering way while also remaining flexible with potential solutions. We typically follow this process:
Holistic Assessment
We begin by listening and having a non-judgmental discussion during which we’ll ask you about what sort of role you’d be interested in doing, what your existing skills are, if you’ve got any work experience, and if you anticipate any challenges. This step uses conversational tools and strengths-based quizzes; however, we’ll always tailor it to your personal preferences so we can offer you the best support.
Career Planning
Together, we build a step-by-step plan. It includes short-term goals (e.g., attend job training, volunteer one day a week, do a mock interview with a member of our team) and long-term goals (e.g., secure paid employment in retail). This will all be done on a timescale and pace that suits you.
Skill Building & Confidence Boosting
We work as a team in supporting you to apply for jobs, prepare for interviews, advocate for yourself, and learn the importance of turning up to an interview or work on time and well-groomed.
Employer Engagement
We’ll introduce you to businesses in Perth that want an inclusive workforce and provide an accessible workplace for everybody. We’ll also help you understand your legal rights and request reasonable workplace adjustments.
On-the-Job Support
Once you start work, our support doesn’t just end. Our coaches can attend your workplace, check in with you and your supervisor, help resolve any challenges, and celebrate your progress.
Ongoing Review & Adjustment
Your situation might change, so we’ll adjust your support plan accordingly so you can keep developing personally and professionally.

Participant Empowerment & Individualised Support
The aim of our finding and keeping a job NDIS-funded service is to empower you. Here’s how we help you stay in charge:
- Your choices come first. Whether you want part-time work, remote roles, or a customer-service position, we will do our best to support you.
- You set the pace. We understand that you’ll either be raring to get a job straight away or need some time to build your skills and get comfortable with the idea of working for someone. Whatever your ambitions, we’ll make sure that you are comfortable with the plan and the pace at which it’s delivered.
- Your feedback matters. We run regular check-ins where you can speak openly about what you feel is working and even what doesn’t. Never be afraid to speak your mind and tell us exactly what you need from us.
- Your skills matter. We will never assume you can’t do something. Instead, we explore how you can and offer one-to-one coaching to help you achieve it.
- Celebrate you. We’ll always congratulate you on every milestone, regardless of how small it is. Whether you’ve drafted your first resume, done an interview or started volunteering, your progress deserves praise and acknowledgement.
This is Aeron's Story
Working with a locally owned business in Perth WA we were able to offer Aeron a supported role where she enjoys interacting with the community and developing her work skills while being paid above-award-wage.
“Getting out on weekends earning money while interacting with the local community is something I really enjoy. By working with Good Company I’ve been able to experience what it’s like to work in open employment.”
