Uniting Care Australia Launch into Work Project

In 2016 the Department of Employment partnered with Uniting Care Australia and the Office of Women to design and implement pre-employment projects to help women into the workforce and fill positions within Uniting Care agencies.

The project targeted job seekers from job actives and undertook targeted training, work experience and mentoring to build their knowledge and work-readiness skills. This gave many job seekers an opportunity to gain the skills and experience they need for roles for which they would otherwise be overlooked. Three pilot projects were delivered in South Australia, Western Australia and Queensland. All three projects had 100 per cent completion rate.
