What are jobs-focused social enterprises?

A jobs or employment-focused social enterprise focuses on creating meaningful employment for disadvantaged Australians.  Nearly 7,000 of all social enterprises in Australia have employment-based support or employment creation as their main focus.

Jobs-focused Social Enterprises have two modes: 

1. Transitional employment (outcome to exit ratios measurements) 

Or 

2. Destination employment (they employ people from certain categories intentionally)
