Looking to hire workers in the construction field? EnerQuality (on behalf of the OHBA) can help.
Access up to $3,000 in hiring incentives. Register before Sept 24, 2021
The Ontario Homebuilders’ Association (OHBA) has a new program to provide ‘job ready’ candidates to help support Ontario’s construction businesses. Managed by EnerQuality, the OHBA program will recruit, pre-screen and qualify prospective workers and provide the necessary training required by the Ministry of Labour, Training & Skills Development.
We’re looking for interested employers who will hire these job-ready workers for a six-month, full-time, paid placement, typically into non-unionized, starter positions, such as general labour.
Employers can tap into a pool of trained workers that have completed mandatory industry safety training and could receive up to a $3,000 incentive (per hire) with the ability to convert placement workers to full-time employees at the end of their placement.
There is no cost to participate in the program. Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) will be provided to all participants. A transportation allowance may be available for some employees.
Please reach out to the EnerQuality team at JobReady@EnerQuality.ca for more information on participating as an employer in the OHBA Job-Ready Program.
