How your business can use the Kickstart Scheme
Event Information
About this event
The government has introduced a new Kickstart Scheme in Great Britain, a £2 billion fund to create hundreds of thousands of high quality 6-month work placements aimed at those aged 16 to 24 who are on Universal Credit and are deemed to be at risk of long term unemployment. Funding available for each job will cover 100% of the relevant National Minimum Wage for 25 hours a week, plus the associated employer National Insurance contributions and employer minimum automatic enrolment contributions.
Wirral Chamber is an intermediary and can support you in accessing the Kickstart scheme. This informative session will give you more detail about the scheme, how you can apply for a Kickstart placement and what is involved in supporting a young person through their 6 month placement.
