Where a small business is not able to retain an apprentice, the subsidy will be available to a new employer.
Eligible employers can apply for a wage subsidy of 50% of the apprentice's or trainee's wage paid during the nine months from 1 January 2020 to 30 September 2020.
Eligible employers will be reimbursed up to a maximum of $21,000 per eligible apprentice or trainee ($7,000 per quarter).
If you have a registered apprentice or trainee, you should receive an email from business.gov.au with a link to apply online. If you have not received an email as of yet, please contact your Australian Apprenticeship Support Network provider.
