This report explores some of the issues around the adequacy of the Job Services Australia (JSA) model in delivering sustainable, meaningful employment outcomes to young people, particularly young people experiencing disadvantage. The report confirms the importance of all generalist and specialised youth JSA service providers adopting best practices when working with young people seeking employment. In addition, the report recommends that the JSA program provides greater recognition of social or non-vocational outcomes achieved by JSA providers for vulnerable young people and that the JSA program encourages JSA providers to adopt an integrated, flexible and highly individualised approach when working with these clients.
