Brisbane Focus Group

Start: Monday, January 20, 2020•10:00 AM

Have you ever been ‘parked’ by your provider? The AUWU would like to hear from you at our Brisbane focus group.

Focus groups will be for approximately 2 hours and participants will receive a $40 gift voucher.

‘Parking’ means that your provider has decided that you are too hard to help and limits services you are entitled to.   ‘Creaming’, on the other hand, means that your provider has decided you are easy to help, or maybe even have lined up a job already, and they provide you with lots of services, including ones that you don’t need.

Together with our partners at Monash University, we are looking to hear from current and former unemployed workers about their experiences of parking (or creaming) in jobactive.


Please RSVP for the event. We will then be in contact with you with more information about the focus groups.

All information provided will be de-identified and its collection has been approved by the Monash University Human Research Ethics Committee (MUHREC).

The information gathered will form a central part of the AUWU's ongoing efforts to reform the employment services industry. There are limited spots available so get in quickly.
