Essential Personnel

Essential Personnel is a not-for-profit organisation providing services and supports to individuals with disability in the Perth Metro and Wheatbelt Regions of Western Australia.

We pride ourselves on delivering exceptional service to each individual, and this is reflected in our performance results,

We deliver services to over 800 individuals with disability; including Disability Employment Services, where we work closely with individuals and employers to find the right meaningful employment for the individual, and Lifestyle Services, where we provide a wide range of supports for individuals to assist them to live the life they choose.

Essential Personnel was established in 1989 in response to an identified gap in services to people with disability in remote and regional areas. Our first office was established in the Central Wheatbelt of Western Australia and has since expanded to Perth Metropolitan as well as regional Wheatbelt areas.

You can find out more about our current services on our website at https://essentialpersonnel.org.au.
