Policy and Advocacy
Working for a fair and equitable Australia
Jobs Australia is the national peak body for nonprofit organisations that assist unemployed people into work.
Our mission is to help members to make the most effective use of their resources and promotes the needs of unemployed people for the services and support that will help them to participate fully in society.
We provide an independent voice for members who range from large charitable organisations to small local community-based agencies.
Jobs Australia is the largest network of employment and related service providers in Australia and is funded and owned by its members.
Indigenous Network
Welcome to the Jobs Australia Indigenous Network
The Jobs Australia Indigenous Network is a network of Indigenous Organisations in urban, remote and regional Australia who deliver services including employment and training services in Indigenous Communities.
The network supports member organisations to build their capacity to deliver services which improve employment and educational outcomes.
Workplace Relations
Community Sector Industrial Relations
Because we are dealing with a complex industrial system, and every employee is different, it’s easy for problems to start out simple but then become difficult.
That’s when you need professional advice. The wrong advice can cost not just a lot of money, but also time, energy and the reputation of your service.
Jobs Australia established the Community Sector Indutrial Relations membership service to provide quality advice to employers, informed by our in depth understanding of the nonprofit community services sector.
Blanket Cover Insurance
Protect your organistation from risk
Are you responsible for ensuring that your organisation is protected from the range of risks and liabilities that might land you in hot water if you’re not?
Our Blanket Cover Insurance Program meets the needs of nonprofits operating in the community sector by providing access to an insurance solution that not only protects your organisation’s valuable resources, but also your public reputation and accountability.
Jobs Australia Foundation
Support for marginalised & disadvantaged communities
The Jobs Australia Foundation was established by Jobs Australia in 2005 to help disadvantaged communities and people in Australia.
The Foundation is committed to:
- providing direct relief to some of the most disadvantaged people in the community
- supporting projects which foster innovation and best practice to build effective collaborations and inclusive communities
- encouraging Jobs Australia members and the wider community to broaden their own commitment to disadvantaged people and communities, either through the Foundation or by establishing similar ventures.
