Canada Ontario Job Grant

Canada-Ontario Job Grant provides an opportunity for employers to invest in their workforce, with help from the government.

The Job Grant will provide direct financial support to individual employers who wish to purchase training for their employees. It will be available to small, medium and large businesses with a plan to deliver short-term training to existing and new employees, and will:

  • Provide up to $10,000 per person for existing staff and $15,000 per person for new staff in government support for training costs 
  • Employers with 100 or more employees need to contribute 1/2 of training costs. Employers with less than 100 employees need to contribute 1/6 of training costs.
  • Require training to be delivered by an eligible, third-party trainer.

 

If you’re an employer with a particular skills demand, the Canada-Ontario Job Grant might be right for you. Applications will be accepted on an ongoing basis.

Employment Services Training Incentive

The Employment Service Training Incentive (ESTI) is a FREE service that assists employers with their hiring needs and offsets the initial training costs associated with a new employee. This placement incentive is funded by the Ontario Ministry of Training, Colleges and Universities through the Provincial Government. It is accessible to individuals who are unemployed and out of school and fit the eligibility guidelines set out by the Ministry.

 

HOW DOES ESTI BENEFIT AN EMPLOYER?

  • Job Trials: Placements that last an average of two weeks are subsidized at Ontario Minimum Wage. They are intended to allow our less experienced clients to “touch” the labour market and also allow employers the opportunity to determine the suitability of the match.
  • On the Job Training: These placements are subsidized based on the training needs of the individual hired. Positions to be subsidized may be full or part-time and either permanent or temporary (seasonal) in duration. This program also includes hiring of apprentices.

 

The Employment Service Training Incentive is available to employers representing all types of businesses. The Employer and an Employment Consultant shall negotiate training length and subsidy level.
