New Employer Incentives for Hiring Apprentices
The Chancellor’s A Plan for Jobs speech launched a wave of new apprentice incentive schemes to help boost the economy and to support the next generation of apprenticeships.
As an Ofsted Outstanding Apprenticeship provider (click here for report), we can provide support with the range of incentives now available and discuss how our high quality apprenticeship programmes can benefit your business. We also offer a free recruitment service.
Following the chancellors announcement made 3rd March 2021, any employers who recruit a new apprentice between 1 April 2021 and 30 September 2021 will receive £3,000 per new hire, regardless of the apprentice’s age.
This is on top of the £1,000 payment already provided for new apprentices aged 16 to 18 and those under 25 with an Education, Health and Care Plan, meaning that some employers could receive £4,000 in total.
This scheme is only available for a limited period so to find out more contact our specialist apprenticeship team today on 0151 257 2828 or email apprenticeships@riverside.ac.uk.
