Scope and reporting are agreed before commencement.

JobAccess workplace support

Employment Assistance Fund

How JobAccess funding may help

The Australian Government’s Employment Assistance Fund (EAF) may reimburse eligible workplace modifications, equipment and services needed by a person with disability to perform their employment duties. Applications can be made by eligible employees, employers, self-employed people, job seekers or service providers.

JobAccess assesses each application and may arrange a free Workplace Modification Assessment. Approval should be obtained before purchasing services or equipment.

Clear professional scope

What this service is—and is not.

Neuro Rise services are workplace-focused capacity-building, vocational assessment and rehabilitation counselling supports. They are not psychotherapy, psychological treatment, diagnostic assessment or medical treatment.

Neuro Rise vocational assessments do not replace a JobAccess-arranged Workplace Modification Assessment or Supported Wage System productivity assessment unless the practitioner has been specifically appointed through the relevant authorised process.
