When to use this code
Use this code for employment-related support. This covers assistance with finding, getting, and keeping a job, including job preparation, workplace modifications, and ongoing support in the workplace. Employment supports help participants build work-related skills and connect with employers who can offer suitable roles.
Common billing scenarios
- A participant attends a day program at a centre for 6 hours. The provider bills 6 hours at the group rate, which is lower than one-on-one support because costs are shared across participants.
- A centre-based program runs a cooking skills workshop for 4 participants over 2 hours. Each participant’s plan is billed for 2 hours at the group rate.
Provider notes
- Short notice cancellation fees apply. If a participant cancels with less than 7 clear days notice (or 2 clear business days for some supports), you can charge up to 90% of the agreed fee. You must document the cancellation and have the cancellation policy in your service agreement.
- Capacity Building funding is time-limited and goal-oriented. Document how the support contributes to the participant’s plan goals, as this will be reviewed at plan reassessment. Unlike Core funding, Capacity Building budgets are usually not flexible across categories.
