About Us
Fitted for Work's vision is for financial independence and transformation for women. Our mission is to help women experiencing disadvantage to get and keep sustainable work.
Fitted for Work assists women from varied backgrounds. For example, they may be older women; survivors of domestic violence; experiencing homelessness; recently released from prison; a newly arrived migrant or refugee woman; or have a disability. They all have one factor in common. They want to work.
Why we do it
Every woman has the right to economic security. When a woman achieves economic security, the flow on effect is transformational. Not only does she reap the benefits but so do her family, her community and ultimately the Australian economy.
Our Services
We provide free interview appropriate clothing at our personal outfitting services, interview preparation, mentoring, work placement and staying employed programs. We focus on developing each woman's confidence and self-esteem as well as her skills to get work.

Currently 64% of the women we assist secure work within 4 months.
-
