About the service
About Supported Employment & Disability Enterprises (ADE) under the NDIS
Supported employment provides participants with the support they need to work in a supported setting, including Australian Disability Enterprises (ADEs). People work with tailored support, supervision, and accommodations suited to their needs, building skills and confidence and gaining valued routine, income, social connection, and a sense of contribution — sometimes as a stepping stone toward broader employment goals.
Good providers support people not only to participate but, where it is a goal, to build skills and explore opportunities including open employment, treating supported work as part of a person's broader aspirations rather than a fixed destination. The NDIS funds the disability-related support needed to participate in work, distinct from the wages paid by the employer. When choosing a provider, look for a genuine focus on the person's goals and development, quality support and supervision, and a track record of helping people grow their skills and, where they want to, move toward more independent work.
