A mobile phone with a Digital Identification for a support worker, James Edwards. The screen shows that James lives in Tweed Heads, NSW, and is providing disability support work for Benjamin, who lives in Coolangatta, QLD.

We've introduced a Digital ID for support workers to access when logged into Hireup.

We know that support can happen anywhere, and in times of restricted movement an ID badge can help show why you are out and about. Your ID badge can also be used to prove your work in the disability sector. For example it can be shown when asking for a priority COVID-19 vaccination.

Your Digital ID

Your Digital ID can be used during a booking, or when travelling to one. It verifies your employment with Hireup and confirms that you are providing essential disability support work.

If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to get in contact with our Community Support team on (02) 9113 5933. You can also call us on this number if you need Hireup’s help in further verifying your employment - or with other support when dealing with authorities.  

Stay updated about COVID-19

There are so many new ways to support each other by thinking creatively. If you have great ideas, share them with the community and join in the current conversations about COVID-19.
