We recently updated Last Minute Jobs to include structured rates.

A quick refresher, structured rates launched in January this year as a way for support workers to group services by type and specify different rates for different times. This update made it easier to review agreements and ensure that the correct rate is being charged for the service.

To find out more about structured rates, you can check out this newsroom article.

Why the change?

Structured rates make it easier to review agreements and ensure that the correct rate is being charged for the service.

What are the day types for hourly rates?

  • Weekday daytime
  • Weekday evening
  • Weekday overnight
  • Saturday
  • Sunday
  • Public holiday

Preventing everyday harm in support work
As a support worker, you want your clients to feel safe, respected and supported. You may already think carefully about how to provide safe support and prevent serious incidents. But harm is not always obvious. Sometimes, small everyday actions, words or assumptions can affect a client in ways you may not have intended or noticed at the time. This is sometimes referred to as everyday harm. Over time, these small moments can build up and may affect how respected, heard, in control or safe your client feels. The newly launched Everyday Harm website brings together practical resources to help support workers and organisations build safer, more respectful support relationships. These resources were developed through Australian Research Council studies, including interviews with people with disability about their experiences. Mable was proud to be involved in this project as an Industry and Community Partner organisation. We hope these resources help you better understand everyday harm
