Job Support fund
Workbridge is an employment service responsible for administering the Job Support fund. Job Support helps people moving into employment as well as assisting people who are in employment to stay in their jobs when they experience the onset of a disability or a worsening condition. It can be used to fund workplace modifications or special assistive equipment. It can also be used for a range of other purposes such as sign language interpreters, coaching, training, and transportation costs.
