I’ve worked as a disability support worker for 5 years, the previous company I worked for charge the client around $90 per hour and paid staff $30 per hour (casual) . Which didn’t go up after 2 years of employment. I asked for a pay rise many times and they came back offered me an additional 60 cents per hour.

I get what you mean but we have lots of people in our country living with disability and as a whole it needs to be managed better and probably funded more than it is currently considering everyone i know in the industry is overworked,underpayed or the participants are getting the short straw with funding

[@jasoncarmichael4540]

[@hairgrowthjourney9005]

No one’s denying that the NDIS has been life changing for families in need, and that’s exactly what it should be. But unfortunately, there’s a darker side to it. There’s been a rise in fraud, where shady operators set up fake agencies to milk the system. They claim to offer services, but it’s all just paperwork, no real support being given. There are even cases where criminal groups get involved, using shell companies to exploit loopholes, and it's costing the government billions. That’s why people are questioning the NDIS. It’s frustrating because while families like yours are benefiting, these scammers are undermining the entire system. If the government doesn’t crack down on this, the funding could eventually run dry, or the rules will get so strict that people who actually need help will have a harder time accessing it. Some of these so called "care providers" are literally fronts for organised crime. They submit fake invoices, claim to deliver support they never provide, and funnel the money straight into their own pockets. And the fact this is growing so fast is unbelievable. It just shows the level of fraud happening as more and more people jump on and rort the system. No one needs to be paid $67/hour to fold clothes and watch people sleep. Just remember, these same people doing it would've exploited Centrelink back in the day. AKA disability pensions and needing a pension when their families have been very well off. Same strategy in this case, but different name.

[@BMusiq02]

Love this! ❤The media focuses so much on the negative side of NDIS due to the handful of rotten eggs that are literal scammers who take advantage of the vulnerable members of our society, but seldom do stories of those individuals, & families who have been helped tremendously by NDIS. Without NDIS, my husband would not have been able to find his own work, or have ‘time out’ to ‘JUST BE’ my husband, as he became a primary carer for me, (started to lose my vision & lost the use of my hands a few years back which was absolutely terrifying for an otherwise fiercely independent person😮😱) & I for one didn’t & don’t want that kind of life for him - he didn’t ask for it - & you & your wife wouldn’t have either, but you all do it out of love for your person/child - so it’s a life saver that we have services like NDIS, that help make a tough situation, a little bit more manageable 😄

An NDIS provider will easily make $450 into their pocket for 1x 8 hour shift, after paying a support worker to go and do the shift with the participant. Just think, an NDIS provider at a reasonable size company may run 4 shifts per day. That is a LOT more money than the average person makes. The money comes from the participant’s NDIS budget, out of tax payers money. If the Australian public knew how much of a (legal) rort this is, they’d be furious.

[@BMusiq02]

Or support workers jack up their hourly rate😮. I had a ‘freelance support worker’ quote me $90ph, when those working with a middle man so to speak, have an average hourly rate of $45/$50ph. It seems if you mention you have NDIS funding, it automatically makes anyone that offers services, hike up their fees at double the rate👀

I do agree that the café that employs people with disabilities is amazing because it gives people a goal and purpose to look forward to daily and that's what most people really want and need in their lives more than just having food on the table. However if you look at the comments below, you will find that many others noted the luxurious items you have. Given that these items may have been bought from your many other ventures globally, I think it is wise to be careful of what you show to the public because NDIS providers are heavily scrutinized by the public and government lately, they may or may not know what actually funds your lifestyle which may put you in a difficult position. In any case, if your company does the right thing, I am sure there is nothing to be worried about and I hope your company thrives because the services provided are much needed in this community. I wish you all the best during this difficult times.

I hear and understand that unfortunately there will be too many people scamming the system which I hate, but I see the other side of it first hand. Both my husband and I now work for a 'not for profit' organisation and we love our jobs, we work with awesome participants that lead a great quality life. Some of them require 24/7 supports. So the jobs the NDIS has created can and does really improve families lives through job opportunities too. I hope people stop scamming the system because this is people's lives and health they could be affecting both workers and those who rely on NDIS for their care.

[@firefueled]

I'm thankful that this system is in place as my mother is on the NDIS and needs support workers to come in and help her with meal prep, cleaning and gardening. Although I have worked for an NDIS provider, working with NDIS participants doing gardening. The parents pay for the company for them to come to work, they get paid from centrelink approx $500 a week. So this company is making a pretty good dime. Yes some of them are moving onto other work but others simply cannot. These companies are making a lot of money off of the less fortunate.. Its not a bad scheme, just needs regulation.
