Global Skills understands the importance of sourcing and skilling the right staff to meet current and future business needs.
We offer a zero cost, full recruitment strategy for a diverse range of employers.
Employers are offered programs to build industry or specific workplace skills, pre-screening, funding qualifications and workplace licences, purchase of PPE or adaptive technology for job seekers with disability.
We help employers access government wage subsidies and other incentive programs which contribute to the initial costs of hiring and skilling new staff.
Service Update – From Monday 15th November 2021, Global Skills welcomes job seekers who have received both COVID-19 vaccinations and can provide vaccination proof to attend our offices for their scheduled appointments. Based on NSW Public Health Orders and Global Skills COVID Safety Plans, face to face appointments will now be available for scheduled appointments only. Masks must be worn by staff, job seekers and visitors to our office. Phone appointments will still be available where face to face appointments are not suitable. Job seekers are reminded they are not permitted to attend our offices if they are unwell or are waiting a COVID test result or have been instructed to isolate. All Global Skills staff in offices are double vaccinated and have received COVID Safety training to ensure protection of visitors to our offices and themselves.
Today we celebrate International Day of People with Disability.
Global Skills proudly recognises the meaningful contribution to our workforce from all employees living with a disability.
Employees like Mina.
“In the past I experienced issues at work. I often disclosed my disability too late and by then my work performance had already been impacted.”
