Overview

MSD is seeking proposals to be submitted that are aimed at providing tailored interventions that will support clients to achieve sustainable employment.

The Service will be delivered to clients from Hutt Valley Work and Income service delivery sites in the Wellington Region and is expected to achieve 200 participant placements per annum. The Work and Income Service Centres in the Hutt Valley cover, Upper Hutt, Naenae, Wainuiomata and Lower Hutt Community Links.

All participant referrals to the service will be direct from Work and Income.

We are seeking an end to end intervention to meet specific individual client needs to overcome barriers to achieving successful sustainable employment outcomes.

Employment Placement and Support
The aim is to support clients into employment that result in a sustainable exit from benefit. Clients will receive expert employment related training and up skilling that will successfully assist the client into employment. Once employment is achieved both the client and employer will receive intensive post placement support for up to 365 days. During this time the Provider will support the needs of both the client and the employer, where appropriate, to create a sustainable employment environment.
The outcome targets of this service are at least 70% of clients will achieve a benefit exit as a result of sustainable employment.
