## About This Program

Wage subsidies for employers of Métis youth in Alberta

## Details

Rupertsland Institute facilitates certified training to qualified Métis individuals and supports real world work experience to help them develop the practical skills required by industry. By partnering with RLI and supporting the employment of Métis workers, you will be able to access the following programs:    Employment Partnership – This program is for Métis individuals who have the skills and accreditation for a job but lack the experience required to secure meaningful employment. Employers who plan to hire Métis workers permanently may receive a subsidy of up to 50% of the wages (excepting MERC) for a period of six months or less, while they facilitate practical on-the-job training to RLI clients.    Youth Summer Employment – This program offers a summer job opportunity to Métis youth (ages 15-30) and helps Métis students gain valuable career-related experience that supports a return to school in the fall. Employers can receive a subsidy of up to 50% of the wages for a total contribution not to exceed the provincial minimum wage. This program runs between May and August. Not-for-profit organizations may be reimbursed up to 100% of the wages and up to the provincial minimum wage.
