Disability service platforms cut staff as start-up downturn comes to NDIS | angusthomson_
Disability support platforms Mable and Hireup have cut office staff as the start-up sector grapples with investors wary of rising inflation and interest rates, and NDIS service providers complain of financial struggles.
Hireup co-chief executive Jordan O’Reilly announced on August 10 the company, which employs its frontline service providers, would cut 35 back office roles, or 10 per cent, “with deep sadness” to ensure its long-term sustainability. Hireup, which was founded in 2015, said its frontline workforce of more than 10,000 disability support workers would not be affected and it was continuing to invest to improve its service.
