Saliba is a 55-year-old culturally and linguistically diverse client of atWork Australia’s Broadmeadows office in Victoria.
With an undisputable drive to achieving his goals of gaining sustainable employment, despite the physical barriers that he lives with, Saliba worked closely with atWork Australia staff to determine what job was possible that would not exacerbate his health concerns.
Having not had much work experience in Australia, Saliba worried about finding the ideal job. Saliba’s Job Coach, Ann, determined that the best way forward for Saliba was to gain certificates that would increase the chances of finding work.
Saliba worked to improve his health condition whilst engaging with atWork Australia. He felt that he wasn’t ready to make any intensive effort to find work until his health had improved. And it time, it did.
Job Coach Ann ensured that Saliba had his Police and Working With Children checks and, once secured, Ann began advocating him to employers on his behalf until Saliba got a job as an Individual Support Worker at Mary Care Pty. Ltd.
Job coach Ann remarked, “The ongoing support provided by atWork Australia motivated the client to overcome his barriers and achieve his goal.”
Saliba was extremely glad when he first heard that he was accepted into the job and reportedly thanked Job Coach Ann profusely.
He mentioned that he couldn’t have found such a perfect role in his circumstances if it wasn’t for the assistance of atWork Australia’s ongoing support and motivation.
Saliba said, “I am so grateful for all the support that I received, and still receive, from atWork Australia. Without their support I would not be working today.”
Laith is the employer for Mary Care Pty. Ltd. who expressed his thanks to atWork Australia for preparing clients for work. He even complemented Saliba’s method of working and how Saliba follows instructions and shows great potential. He also mentioned that Saliba received high praise from customers regarding the service quality that he provides.
Job coach Ann concluded, “atWork Australia guided and supported Saliba to take the first step in achieving his goal.”
