Sourcing and Applying for Funds
Government funding for the program takes different forms.
a. Where there exists the option of the Government paying 100% of the salary (minimum wage), the Employer will only pay the additional wage above the minimum wage and Mandatory Employment Related Costs (MERCs) (if applicable).
b. Where there exists the option of the Government paying less than 100% of the minimum wage, Employers will pay the remaining percentage and Mandatory Employer Related Costs (MERCs) (if applicable). In such cases, governments may pay 50 – 80% of the youth’s salary.
