New Wage Subsidies –

A wage subsidy program offered by the Vancouver North East WorkBC Centre is an opportunity for employers to re-hire laid-off employees, hire new ones, and connect with WorkBC clients looking for jobs. This is one of the multiple employment support programs offered by MOSAIC BC.

For eligible employers and job-seekers, the new and revised program subsidizes wages for up to 24 weeks. WorkBC staff will help with applications, and then follow up with support and monitoring.

“The new wage subsidy program is now accessible to all,” says Maria Poe, co-ordinator, client engagement, WorkBC. “Whether it’s wage subsidy or other supports, we assist businesses, individuals who are citizens and permanent residents alike, indigenous peoples, youth, youth at risk, persons with special needs, with a disability, single parents, mature workers, individuals who may be experiencing or have experienced violence, and multi-barriered individuals.”
