To help employers tackle skills shortages in priority occupations, the Australian government is offering up to $5,000 in financial support with the Priority Hiring Incentive.
This incentive has been created to help businesses employ and train workers for jobs on the Australian Apprenticeships Priority List.
There is also the Disability Australian Apprentice Wage Support, which provides weekly payments to eligible employers.
