National Panel of Assessors

Overview

The National Panel of Assessors provides a range of independent assessment services to assist with the needs of people with disability in the workplace. Assessment services include Ongoing Support Assessments for Disability Employment Services (DES) participants, Supported Wage System assessments which determine the productivity-based wage for Supported Wage System participants, and Workplace Modifications Assessments for Employment Assistance Fund recipients. The Australian Government is inviting membership to the DES National Panel of Assessors via an open application process, to provide assessment services across all Employment Service Areas (ESA) from 1 July 2018 to 30 June 2023. Membership will be offered initially for these five years as a result of this process.
