Employment makes a tremendous difference to a person’s life, and helps them to engage with the community in which they live.
Some people face challenges, both large and small, on their journey towards gaining sustainable work. The Employer Awards strive to recognise employers who are willing to overlook and help overcome the challenges that job seekers face, and help make a real difference in their lives.
By recognising the support that local employers give in hiring unemployed job seekers, Mission Australia Employment Solutions hopes to reduce negative perceptions of unemployed people that may exist within local communities.
Award recipients will benefit from the status of being recognised as an employer that transforms the lives of local unemployed people and gives back to the local community.
Employers can be nominated by completing a printed nomination form (available at your local Mission Australia Employment Solutions site) or by completing our online form.
Nominations opened 1 July 2011, with entries closing on 30 September 2011.
Who can enter?
The Employer Awards are open to all local employers of participating Mission Australia Employment Solutions sites who have used our services within the past 12 months.
Employers will be judged based on their contribution to helping unemployed people find work.
Local presentations of 2011 awards will take place in October 2011. Local winners will qualify for entry into the national awards and will be invited to a national awards dinner that will be held in November 2011.
