Quoll Posted January 11, 2009 Share Posted January 11, 2009 Cant speak for the Gold Coast but around here, disability support workers tend to be employed by NGOs (Non Govt Organizations) which are often but not exclusively charities. Pay is very low - I think you would be lucky to be looking at $40 - $45K although if you are employed by a charity there is a possibility of quite generous salary sacrificing.

Guest Greatatuin Posted July 21, 2012 Share Posted July 21, 2012 Hi caza75! Just wondered if you'd had any luck with the above mentioned job. I've just got here and was doing the same as you back in the UK and just can't find anything similar here! Looks like I'm gonna have to spend a couple grand on getting relevant certIV and re-training. Hope you found what you were looking for!! :smile: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest lisa crowe Posted July 21, 2012 Share Posted July 21, 2012 Your probably looking at about $20 give or take an hour....I'm only guessing as that seems to be the going rate for the caring profession. I'm in age care, across the board, and it seems to be $17 up to $24 per hour Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
