atWork Australia Mirrabooka team celebrating their success

The Mirrabooka office of atWork Australia recently celebrated the achievement of being awarded 5 stars for both their Disability Specialist programme and Generalist programmes, by the Department of Education, Employment and Work Relations (DEEWR).

atWork Australia Mirrabooka first opened its door in July 2003, and with its unique approach to disability employment services, the team was quickly rewarded with a five-star rating in their first year of operation. They are continuing their reputation as a leading provider of disability employment services, and in April 2008, was again awarded the coveted five-star rating for its Specialist Contract, for the ninth successive time. They have achieved double success in 2008 with being awarded 5 stars for their generalist programme as well.

The other atWork Australia offices – Glendalough and Northbridge (Central site), and Spearwood generalist – have all been awarded a spectacular 4½ star rating.

Mirrabooka disability specialist continues to be the only Job Network provider which has maintained an uninterrupted 5 star rating since the star ratings system began.

Paul Carter, Manager, atWork Mirrabooka attributes their success to the ability of the team to identify the right jobs for local jobseekers and to support them and their employers into achieving long term success.

"Our team is really quite unique", he said. "Achieving 5 stars in both categories and sustaining our 5 star rating in disability uninterrupted over 9 rating periods demonstrates that our approach to job placement really works".
