Disability Employment Network (DEN)

The Disability Employment Network (DEN) provides specialist assistance to job seekers with disability who require ongoing support to find and maintain employment. DEN is delivered by a network of organisations around Australia.

A job seeker can be referred to DEN if they:

• have permanent (or likely to be permanent) disability;
• have a reduced capacity for communication, learning or mobility;
• require support for more than six months after placement in employment; and/or
• require specialist assistance to build capacity in order to share the financial, social and personal benefits that employment offers.

For more information visit: www.workplace.gov.au/DEN or www.jobaccess.gov.au

To find out about the DEN Program telephone Centrelink and ask to speak to a Disability Support Officer: 13 10 21.
