When you hire a job seeker registered with a Disability Employment Services provider, your workplace may be referred to APM for assessment. Our team of allied health professionals carry out the assessment, which are used to determine the level of support your business and your employee may receive. Our dedicated and experienced Assessment Services team carries out more than 1,500 assessments every year. These assessments are used to determine three main types of support:
Ongoing Support To enable a person with disability to maintain employment in their current job.
Supported Wage System To support employees who are unable to work at the same level as their team members due to an injury or disability. Workplace Modifications To provide your employee with work related tools or equipment to help them carry out their job tasks, and to determine if any workplace modifications are required in your business.
Your business may also receive an assessment if a job seeker or employee is already receiving one of these support services.
If you want an independent disability workplace assessment for workplace modifications for a member of your team, you can make a request through the government's JobAccess service.
They will assign an independent member of the National Panel of Assessors, such as APM, to carry out the assessment, who will contact you to arrange a suitable time.
