Low Staff Turnover

We offer generous rewards, a positive team culture, and various employee development benefits that make us the Employer of Choice. That’s why we retain good staff and have reduced staff departures

Over the previous five years, Afford had a staff turnover rate of 33%. Over the past 12 months, we have reduced our staff turnover to 22% - which is the national average for the disability sector - and we are tracking on reducing this further in the coming year to around 12%.

Afford is a great place to work and we believe this reduction in staff turnover is reflective of employee happiness and work satisfaction.

Return To Work

As an organisation in the Disability Sector, we must do everything we can to minimise Workers’ Compensation claims. It is important that our limited funds not be used for claims, but rather invested into delivering outcomes for our clients

Our training puts significant focus on the key risk areas in our sector – Manual Handling and Motor Vehicle Safety. Our claims history is very low. We also work with professional advisors who thoroughly review every Workers’ Compensation claim to assess its validity. Further to this, we provide support for injured workers get back to work as soon as possible.
