People on welfare payments who get support to find a job will be funnelled into three distinct streams under reforms aimed at making Australia's beleaguered employment services system fairer.
More than one million Australians - many of them on programs such as JobSeeker - are required to see privately owned employment services providers under a $2 billion-a-year scheme aimed at getting more people into paid work.
But the system has been plagued with claims of unfair suspensions from support payments.
Workplace Minister Amanda Rishworth will outline a three-tiered system for people who are dealing with Workforce Australia as they try to find a job.
She says the move will be a big change from the current approach where all job seekers are triaged in the same way.
