Negotiating Fair Prices
For your Supports
Join Pieta to explore the new models available to engage support and how to get FAIR prices.
With concerns around NDIA plan budgets and growing pressures on our available workforce engaging and keeping quality support workers is getting more and more challenging.
While the right worker might be “worth their weight in gold” the reality is that we need to balance available funding against a scale of worker quality and qualifications.
In this session we will talk about:
-
What you want/need from your support workers in experience and qualifications
-
Models of engaging workers - traditional provider, independent contractor, employment model
-
Current industry standard wages vs NDIS Price Guide vs independent contractor costs
-
How to write a job description that includes payment guidelines
The aim of our discussion will be to give you an understanding of the support worker perspective and current sector practices around support so you can be confident to have open and positive conversations with the support workers and providers you want to engage.
For unpaid carers in the local community to connect with each other and learn new things
