My employment pathway

When it comes to navigating employment supports for people with intellectual disability, it can be hard to know where to start.

A useful feature of the Everyone Can Work website is the 'My employment pathway' tool on the home page. Select ‘Start here’, answer a few short questions, and you will get resources relevant to your situation.

Whether you or your family member are in primary or high school, looking for work or looking to change jobs, the 'My employment pathway' tool has plain and Easy Read resources to support your open employment research.
