Funding is now available for employers hiring youth in the ag sector.
The $13 million from the Youth Employment and Skills Program (YESP) will support roughly 1,200 jobs.
Minister for Women and Gender Equality and Youth Marci Ien said YESP will make sure everyone, regardless of their identity has a fair chance at success in many in-demand sectors, including the ever-growing agriculture sector.
“By giving young people, particularly those facing systemic barriers to employment due to their gender, race, socioeconomic status, sexual orientation, disability or other intersecting identities, the opportunity to gain valuable work experience, we are breaking down barriers and creating endless potential for what they can achieve tomorrow,” Ien said.
