We believe people with disability should be fully included in the workforce. Our proven pathway is designed to break down the barriers people face in finding and keeping a mainstream job.

We want to empower your clients to achieve their employment goals.

What makes Jigsaw different?

Jigsaw is a social enterprise that revolutionises the way people with disability prepare for the workforce by embedding an innovative training program, tailored to each individual’s needs and abilities, within a real business. We believe people prepare best for work through work.

Different from a Disability Employment Service (DES), our three-stage model supports trainees through:

• Jigsaw Academy – training in 20 core soft skills, alongside work experience. These skills include teamwork, punctuality and professional communication and are mapped against corporate and government entry-level roles.
• Jigsaw Digital – award wage employment working on client contracts for our digitisation and information management business, and
• Jigsaw Connect – support to secure and retain mainstream employment with a disability-aware, inclusive employer, when each individual is ready.

Since 2014, Jigsaw has supported more than 900 people with disability on their pathway to mainstream employment at award wage. Of those employed or transitioned into employment by Jigsaw, 91 per cent retain their position to this day, outperforming existing disability employment models.

We work collaboratively with the allied health community

When a trainee joins our service, with their consent, we collaborate with their allied health practitioners (e.g. speech pathologist, occupational therapist, psychologist) to ensure we are working holistically to meet the person’s goals and maximising their NDIS funding.
