Placement Incentives
Employers may be eligible to receive financial incentives that support on-the-job training and work experience opportunities for participants, including the Youth Employment Fund. Incentive levels vary and are based on the skill level and length of training required. In order to participate in an incentive, a new employee must be assessed at one of the Employment Assessment Centre sites.
The details of the placement must be arranged prior to the new employee starting work. An existing employee may also qualify for a placement incentive if he/she is being promoted to a more highly skilled position or an apprenticeship. Incentives for sponsored apprenticeship opportunities, which include the Apprenticeship Employer Signing Bonus of $2,000 is also available to employers who hire, register and train an apprentice.
Once the Placement Incentive has been approved, a representative from the Employment Assessment Centre will assist the employer set up a detailed training plan, and work with the employer to monitor the employee’s progress, providing support as required to ensure success.
