Are you a Queensland employer needing qualified and skilled staff for your workforce?
Incentives are available for employers who recruit Queensland job seekers as part of the Queensland Government's Skilling Queenslanders for Work and Back to Work initiatives.
Employers also have the opportunity to support and participate in local Skilling Queenslanders for Work training projects designed to equip job seekers with the skills, qualifications and experience needed to enter and stay in the workforce.
First Start
First Start provides wage subsidies to local councils and community organisations to employ young people and disadvantaged job seekers in traineeships. The program allows job seekers to gain a nationally recognised qualification and at least 12 months employment as a trainee.
