Have you ever hired employees off the street or through an agency, only to find out that the employee is not a good match for your needs, is not productive to your standards, or came with inadequate (or non-existent) support services?

Elm Brook Place offers two cost-effective solutions for your personnel needs:

Transitional Employment:

• Perfect for part-time entry-level jobs in office support, retail, food service and many other fields.
• Our staff learns your job thoroughly to your specifications and productivity standards.
• We place one of our program members who is deemed a good fit for your needs into the position.
• Our staff trains your employee to your specifications until all parties are happy with job performance/fit.
• Our fully insured staff actually covers your job for any employee absence for free, ensuring your productivity.
• Your employee works the position for 6 to 9 months, after which time the job is rolled over to another program member who is then trained.
• You get a Work Opportunity Tax Credit for hiring through our program

Our program member gets:

• Valuable work experience
• A boost of self-confidence and self-worth
• A real connection to the community
• Something recent to put on their resume or job application
• A good job reference to move forward with a supported or independent job.
  

Supported Employment:

• Our staff finds an ideal employee to suit your needs for a wide variety of jobs including skilled professions – for free!
• Your employee receives on-going support from our program including but not limited to job transportation, and training assistance if needed.
• You get a Work Opportunity Tax Credit for hiring through our program

We work with many local are companies who have enjoyed not only a tax credit from hiring our members, but excellent employees with unparalleled on-going support services to back them up.
