Tender Details
Tender Description
Applications are now open for organisations to apply for the Time to Work Employment Service program.
The Time to Work Employment Service is a new employment service targeted at sentenced adult Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people in prison. The program will offer Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people with assistance to transition from prison to employment, by preparing them for employment post-release.
The Department is seeking suitably qualified providers to deliver the service in adult prisons in non-remote regions. Potential providers will have an in-depth understanding of the issues of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people in prison and the barriers they will face as ex-offenders looking for employment, as well as an ability to effectively engage with Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people in a culturally competent manner.
