Care and support

Where to look for help and advice

Work Solutions

Work Solutions offers help and support to people whose situation makes it difficult for them to get and keep a job. We also help employers to implement their equal opportunities policies.

However, we can only help people with mental ill health, learning disabilities (including Aspergers), physical disabilities and sensory needs who meet Adult Care Services eligibility criteria and incapacity benefit claimants.

Our aim is to help you obtain and keep your job by improving your confidence and self esteem and ensuring you meet employers' expectations.

We will do this by:
  • matching your skills, experience, talents and strengths to the employer’s requirements for the job.
  • putting together a profile for you, and providing the opportunity to try out jobs for short time-limited periods.
  • offering support, for as long as necessary, to you and your employer.
  • offering you a mentor, where appropriate, to support you in keeping your job.


Important: These pages are a summary of support available from Work Solutions. Further information, including case studies, is available in leaflets published by Adult Care Services. To view these leaflets online, or to order copies, please use the Adult Care Services Publications link under 'Also on hertsdirect' on the right, and navigate to the Employment section.
