What is it?
The Kickstart Scheme is an opportunity to create thousands of high quality job placements for young people. Funding available for each job will cover:
- The relevant National Minimum Wage for 25 hours a week

Through this program, employers will be able to access a large pool of young people with potential, ready for an opportunity.
What is its purpose?
- Jobs should not displace other jobs
- Proactive steps should be taken at a local level
- Priority should be on job creation
- Good employer support will create scale
- Young people will need support
