Across our communities, many capable and motivated women impacted by a criminal record are seeking opportunities to rebuild their lives through meaningful employment. While they bring valuable skills, resilience and lived experience, finding an employer willing to provide a second chance can be challenging without the right support and opportunities.
Success Works Employment was established to help change that. By working closely with employers and job seekers, Success Works creates pathways to sustainable employment, matching individuals with roles that align with their skills, interests and aspirations. The program provides tailored support to both employees and employers, helping create positive workplace experiences and successful long-term outcomes.
Clubs are uniquely positioned to play a vital role in this journey. With diverse operations across hospitality, administration, maintenance, customer service and events, clubs offer a range of employment opportunities that can help people gain valuable skills, confidence and experience.
In addition to employment pathways, clubs can also support social impact through procurement choices. Test & Tag Social Enterprise provides professional electrical test and tag services while creating employment opportunities for women who may otherwise experience barriers to entering the workforce. Every service delivered contributes to both workplace safety and positive social outcomes.
By engaging social enterprises, clubs can achieve multiple benefits. They receive high-quality services, strengthen their social-impact credentials and directly contribute to creating jobs and opportunities within their communities. It is a practical way to align everyday business decisions with the values that clubs have always represented: community, inclusion and support.
As the sector continues to evolve, partnerships between clubs and social enterprises offer a powerful opportunity to build stronger communities. Together, we can create meaningful employment pathways, support local people and demonstrate how business can be a force for positive social change.
