JobMaker Hiring Credit: Second JobMaker period now open
February 9, 2021
Have you hired a new employee?
We are now in the second JobMaker period (7 January to 6 April 2021). Claims for eligible employees taken on during this period, can be made when the second claim period opens on 1 May 2021. Remember, both the employer and their additional employees must meet the eligibility criteria for the period the claim is for.
The JobMaker hiring credit is a wage subsidy paid to employers at a fixed rate. Business owners will receive $200 per week to hire workers between 16 to 29, or $100 a week for workers between 30 to 35. This will be paid in quarterly arrears by the ATO.
Workers will only be eligible if they’re already receiving JobSeeker, Youth Allowance (Other), or the Parenting Payment for at least one of the three months prior to their date of employment.
They also have to work at least 20 hours of paid work to be eligible and is only eligible with one employer at a time.
But employers will have to increase their headcount and payroll to qualify for the scheme, meaning new people must be hired and workers who are already employed at a business don’t qualify.
