CAREER FOCUS PROGRAM

CSCSC's new Career Focus Program is a wage-subsidy program that creates a work experience to help supply chain employers hire post-secondary graduates.

CSCSC provides eligible companies with a subsidy equal to one-third of the eligible participant's salary, to a maximum of $12,750 over a maximum one-year work-experience period. This subsidy is paid in instalments throughout the work-experience period, with the amount calculated using payroll data for the participant.

This offers employers the benefit of gaining employees with cutting-edge skills, and gives participants valuable experience within a work environment. Frequently, companies will retain graduates as full-time employees upon completion of the work-experience period.
