Working with a neurological disability with Inclusive Employment Australia support

We understand the diversity of disability

Neurological disabilities encompass a variety of conditions that affect the nervous system, often impacting movement, learning, and other aspects of daily life.

At APM we’ve supported thousands of people living with a neurological disability to thrive in fulfilling work.

Last year alone we supported 2,801 people with a neurological disability in Disability Employment Services (DES) - which changed to Inclusive Employment Australia in November 2025.

This includes more than 1,000 people with epilepsy and 281 people with cerebral palsy.

At APM, we also know every person who registers for employment support is different.

That’s why we get to know and understand you when we start working with you.

We discuss your interests, the type of work you would like to do, and your employment goals.

Then we work together to help you achieve your goals and find the right job for you.

If you're living with a disability, injury, or health condition, and want to explore tailored support to achieve your goals, speak to us today.

Get in touch on 1800 276 276 or register with APM to start your journey.
