Job Seeker Management Activities 001-09150000



This document outlines how to action job seeker management activities generated on customer records.

Job seeker management activities

Job seeker management activities alert Service Officers that follow-up action is required for a job seeker.

There may be a keyword (parameter) attached to an activity. It is a short code or description that provides more details, such as the source or purpose of an activity, and allows for a search of that activity via the Worklist in Work Optimiser.

Job seeker activities can be created via job seeker activity management processing or Job Seeker Registration processing.

Job seeker management activities can be actioned by Service Officers in smart centres or service centres.

Outstanding activities are completed during contact with the job seeker through the Participation Summary in Process Direct.
