First JobMaker deadline looms

6 January 2021 is the final day of the first JobMaker Hiring Credit period and the deadline for enrolling in the scheme to access payments for this period. While the ATO has the ability to extend this deadline, there has not been any advice on this to date. Enrolments are not open as yet but because of the tight turnaround times, if your business would like to access JobMaker for the first period, it will be important to assess eligibility.

For individuals, JobTrainer offers those aged between 17 and 24 the ability to upskill or reskill and minimal cost.
