Indian Rasooi, an Indian restaurant in Zetland, New South Wales, was looking for reliable candidates to join the team.
Owner Manager, Ashish, reached out to atWork Australia to see what assistance the team could offer.
“Ashish and the restaurant have very similar values to atWork Australia,” said Employer Engagement Consultant, Irene.
“They wanted to hire a diverse workforce and provide opportunities to everyone.”
During this time, the restaurant was busy, and Ashish had limited time to spend on recruitment.
“Working with atWork Australia was easy, convenient and an efficient way to access suitable people,” said Ashish.
“They gave me more time back.”
Since working with atWork Australia, Indian Rasooi, have hired three people who are now thriving through meaningful employment.
“They are committed to helping people living with disability to maintain long-term employment by providing tailored support,” said Irene.
One client who recently started with Indian Rasooi, had limited experience working in hospitality. They were also living with health conditions.
Ashish and the team agreed to meet with the client, regardless of their experience. They recognsied the client had a great attitude towards work and was able to do the role.
To Ashish and the team, attitude, reliability and a willingness to work hard as part of a team, meant more than experience.
They also agreed to change the hours of the job, so the client could take a day of rest between shifts.
