For Employers
Need help finding qualified job candidates?
A Supported Employment (SE) specialist can work with you one-on-one to learn about your workforce needs. As qualified job candidates become available through the SE program, they will be referred to you. When you hire an SE job seeker, both you and your new hire will receive SE supports as needed to make the placement successful.
Who are SE program job seekers?
Job seekers in SE programs are of all ages and employment backgrounds, qualified for employment at varying levels. As people with mental health conditions, they are members of a proven labor pool, known to be long-lasting, hard-working and loyal employees. When employers lack experience with members of this labor pool, the SE specialist is there to support them and help them become successful as a diversity-inclusive workplace.
What is the cost to you, the employer?
Other than the time to meet with the SE specialist, SE program services cost you nothing! You gain steady employees, qualified to do the job and suited to your workplace culture, as well as free consultation over time as needed. You will discover the many benefits of diversity inclusion, including available tax incentives and credits.
