FAQs
It can be a challenging enough to get employed on your ability, let alone when there are questions that need to be answered. Below is a list of the questions Team EmployAbility are mostly commonly asked.
If we haven’t managed to solve your dilemma in the notes below, please reach out.
Filter by:
How are the workshops delivered, and who will be delivering them?
We can offer our training sessions both face to face with up to 30 people, or online. They are presented by our staff with lived experience of disability.
We can also offer online options too. Ask us about our bundle options.
Do you operate out of different states or territories?
Our head office is in Little Bay, in Sydney NSW and we have staff in additional areas of NSW, VIC and SA. We consider ourselves nationwide and help both employees and employers right across Australia. Our Employment Program is run online and can be accessed anywhere you have an internet connection.
How do I enrol in the TBI Program?
You can enrol in our TBI Pilot Employment program through our website via the TBI page.
Do I need to disclose my disability in my job application?
You have no legal obligation to tell your prospective employer that you have a disability.
During the early stages of the job application process, the focus on the resume and the cover letter should be on matching your skills and experience to the job advertised.
If your disability does not affect your ability to perform the core function of the role, it is not necessary at this stage to disclose it. You may still feel that it is necessary to disclose the disability if:
- It is relevant to perform the role
- You are likely to need workplace adjustments to perform the role
- You think the employer is disability friendly and you feel comfortable disclosing.
If you do feel comfortable disclosing your disability pre interview, it will provide you with an excellent opportunity to check accessibility and then have a top line discussion about reasonable adjustments that you may require to eliminate any elements of doubt or concern.
