Employment ACTion, a not-for-profit program that provides progressive employment solutions for employers and job seekers. A program of the AIDS Committee of Toronto (ACT), Employment ACTion works with men, women, youth and newcomers to Canada who are living with HIV and AIDS to find career solutions that best meet their individual needs. ACT required an interactive website that would effectively promote the scope of services available through their Employment Services program.

  • Provide an interactive, professional, and modern look which is AODA compliant and responsive to mobile devices
  • Effectively promote the scope of services available through ACT's Employment Services program
  • Create a place to securely store documents frequently accessed by both ACT Employment Service Program clients, employers and ACT employees

Solution

Sandbox partnered with design partners (Intent) to create a contemporary, accessible and responsive new website for Employment ACTion. The new OASIS website features registration and authentication capabilities through unique online forms. Once authenticated, users can access the ACT Employment Service portal. Employee ACTion administrators receive email notifications when a user registers and can approve or decline the application. Password resets, and user/group permission settings are just some of the capabilities the OASIS CMS provides. Users are provided with an individual profile which they can manage and customize. Registered employers can post information about an active job opportunity, and registered clients have the ability to search and review these job postings. Clients also have the ability to flag their interest in a position and upload a cover letter. Employers can review the list of potential candidates interested in a specific position, view employment profiles, and download any support documents, such as a cover letter or resume. The new website also features a Calendar of Events (with registration capabilities), a media gallery, secured resource directory, and a "Book an Appointment" feature.

Outcome

The new Employment ACTion website supports employers and job seekers by connecting them to one another through a secured online portal. It supports one of ACT's fundamental goals by addressing the growing need of HIV-positive job seekers needing support in gaining and maintaining meaningful employment. The website provides job seekers comprehensive pre-employment supports, job search coaching, placements, and opportunities for skills upgrading/training.
