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.”

Disability Employment Support Services FAQ

NDIS Funded Employment Support includes a range of services designed to help people with disability prepare for, find, and keep a job. Supports can include mentoring, skill-building, job applications, workplace support, and career planning. At Good Company, we tailor these supports to your strengths, interests, and goals.

Yes. We support participants to explore job options that match their abilities and passions. This includes creating resumes, preparing for interviews, and identifying roles in the community that feel meaningful. We walk alongside you from planning and preparation through to settling into work. Securing paid work is not only dependant upon the support you receive, it also depends on other factors such as job availability, any experience or skills you may have, and your level of engagement with employers and the job searching process as a whole.

Employment Assistance helps you get ready to find work — including job search support, applications, and building readiness.
Supports in Employment focus on helping you succeed in your job — including managing tasks, building confidence, and workplace mentoring.

We are an experienced NDIS provider working with plan-managed and self-managed participants in a range of areas including Employment Support. If you’re unsure whether your NDIS plan includes Employment Support, we can help you review it or speak with your plan manager or Support Coordinator. Good Company is an unregistered NDIS provider and we can support participants with NDIS funding that is either plan managed or self managed.

We currently provide support across Perth and Greater Melbourne. Our team can meet you in the community, at home, online, or wherever works best for you.

Yes, you can work while receiving NDIS funding. The NDIS is not means tested, and your personal income and assets are not a consideration when the NDIA is deciding the level of funding you require to cater for your disability related support needs.

Centrelink, part of Services Australia, oversees the Disability Support Pension, so it's best to get in contact with them to confirm the amount of work you can undertake, or the income you can receive before your DSP is affected. You may be able to earn a specific amount before your DSP is affected, and even if you exceed this level and your DSP is reduced, you still may end up better off financially. We can support you to discuss this with Centrelink as part of the support you receive from us.
