NDS releases good practice guide for NDIS employment supports
10/04/2024
NDS has produced a Good Practice Guide on the use of NDIS Employment Supports for NDS members who provide supports to employees and jobseekers with disability. It is the third in a series of good practice guides for members, following guides to Classifying Employees under the SES Award and the use of the Supported Wage System under the SES Award.
The guide identifies principles of good practice in the provision of employment supports for NDIS participants, including the elements of the Customised Employment service model and how employment support providers can positively engage with mainstream employers. It also has detailed information on the different types of NDIS employment supports and their pricing and claiming arrangements.
