Support for wages and training when a company hires students, apprentices or new staff.
Hiring and wage subsidies are federal and provincial programs that support wages and training when a company hires students, apprentices or new staff. Several different bodies administer them instead of one agency, which is why GrantMark screens them as a group.
Wage subsidies turn on who a company hires and where, rather than on what it builds. A business that qualifies for none of the research programs may still qualify here, which is why companies miss this group most often.
The department or provincial ministry that funds each program in this group also delivers it and decides eligibility, under its own published criteria.
The departments and provincial ministries that fund these programs administer them, and each publishes its own criteria, amounts and deadlines.
The GrantMark eligibility check asks thirteen questions about a company and screens the answers against a maintained catalog of Canadian federal and provincial funding program rules, Hiring and wage subsidies among them. Nothing is generated, so the same answers always produce the same result, and every program that comes back traces to the rule that let it through.
GrantMark is not a government agency and does not decide eligibility. A GrantMark assessment shows which programs a company appears to qualify for. It is where an application starts, and nothing more.
Thirteen questions, about two minutes. The check is free.
