About
Daily or weekly check-ins with supervisors involve scheduled meetings or touchpoints to review the progress of tasks, set goals, provide feedback, and address any challenges or barriers the individual may be facing.
These regular check-ins are designed to provide ongoing support, ensure tasks are being completed on time, and offer guidance on task prioritisation and time management. Daily or weekly check-ins with supervisors can benefit employees with conditions that impact their ability to manage tasks independently or stay organised.
Check-ins can be done in person, via phone, or virtually, depending on the needs and preferences of the individual. The frequency and format of these meetings can be adjusted based on the complexity of the tasks or the needs of the employee.
These check-ins serve as a structured opportunity for the individual to discuss their workload, ask questions, and receive clarification, which helps maintain organisation, focus, and motivation. This adjustment is particularly helpful for individuals who may need additional structure, accountability, or support in managing their time and tasks effectively.
It can also enhance communication and reduce potential confusion in a work environment, improving overall productivity and well-being.
Costs and Funding
There are no direct costs for the employee associated with this accommodation as it only involves scheduling regular meetings between the employee and their supervisor, except for the time spent by both parties during these check-ins.
However, the time investment may need to be factored into the supervisor’s or manager’s schedule, especially if the individual requires frequent or extended meetings.
In cases where significant supervisor support is needed, such as for someone with an intellectual disability who requires daily and ongoing support, funding can be sought via their individual NDIS plan and via the supported wage system.
