Why Supported Hosted Employment Works for Businesses

It connects people with disability to roles in everyday businesses, where they can grow, contribute and belong – backed by a structured support system from day one.
What makes this model so effective is its focus on capability, inclusion and connection. It’s not about ticking a box for inclusion; it’s about building a more rounded and purpose-driven culture.

Employers who embrace the SHE model often describe powerful ripple effects:
- A stronger, more values-aligned team culture
- Boosted morale and renewed energy across the workforce
- A clearer sense of purpose in the business
SHE is about creating shared values: providing employment pathways for people with disability while helping businesses lead with purpose and impact.
