Disability Employment Adviser (DEA)

Description

If you need extra employment support because of a disability, your local Jobcentre can put you in touch with one of their Disability Employment Advisers who help people to look for and stay in work. They support both employers and workers and can help with applications for funding and specialist equipment.

Your Disability Employment Adviser can offer you:

•an employment assessment to help you identify what type of work or training suits you best

•a referral, if needed, for a specialist employment assessment with a Work Psychologist to help you prepare to find and stay in work

•a job-matching and referral service - the DEA can let you know about jobs that match your experience and skills and provide advice about Access to Work, if required

•a referral, where appropriate, to the Work Programme to help you prepare for and stay in work

•a referral, where appropriate, to a programme for disabled people, like Work Choice or Residential Training

•information on employers in your area who have adopted the 'two ticks' disability symbol
