June 29, 2016<\/strong><\/p>\n

The State Government\u2019s $100 million Back To Work regional jobs package will start this Friday (July 1).<\/p>\n

The new package provides employers with payments of $10,000 for hiring an unemployed person, rising to $15,000 for the long-term unemployed.<\/p>\n

“Employers can access payments within four weeks of hiring under this initiative,” Employment Minister Grace Grace said.<\/p>\n

“The program is only available to employers outside south-east Queensland because that\u2019s where the area of greatest need exists.<\/p>\n

“If you\u2019re a regional Queensland employer who is thinking of hiring, I encourage you to take advantage of our Back to Work program.<\/p>\n

“Queensland is forecast to have nation-leading economic growth over the next two years, so now\u2019s the right time to invest in more staff.”<\/p>\n

More information is available on the Queensland Treasury website<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n

Footnote: South Burnett employers are eligible to take advantage of the package, however employers in the Toowoomba Regional Council area are not. This means an employer in Blackbutt or Nanango would be eligible, but employers in Yarraman and Cooyar are not.<\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
