Applying for wage subsidy
What is it?
As an employer, you can apply for a wage subsidy if you hire someone with a Social assistance benefit . These are employees with labor disabilities who are not fully employable.
Does your company employ a young person who cannot earn the minimum wage due to a disability? You can apply for a wage subsidy for that employee as well.
The amount of the subsidy depends on the employee's wage value. The municipality determines the wage value.
