Under the wage subsidy scheme, workers will receive a fortnightly payment of $1,500 (before tax) through their employer.

Businesses and Employers, ensuring cash flow to pay bills and wages

Temporary cash flow payments up to $100,000 are available to keep eligible small to medium-sized businesses operating, paying your bills and retain staff.

Apprentices and trainees

The government is supporting the continued development of Australia’s skilled workforce and helping eligible businesses retain apprentices and trainees by offering a 50 per cent wage subsidy.

Businesses and employers in financial distress

During this difficult time otherwise profitable and viable businesses face temporary financial distress.

It is important that these operators have a safety net to make sure that when the crisis has passed they can resume normal operations.

A safety net will apply to lessen the threat of actions that could unnecessarily push your business to being wound up or forced into insolvency or bankruptcy during this time.
