Boost Your Business with Wage Subsidies Through COSTI Mississauga Employment Centre

Are you a business owner in Ontario looking to grow your team but finding the hiring process time-consuming and costly? You’re not alone. Many business owners face these challenges. Luckily, there is a solution: the wage subsidy program provided by the government of Ontario.

Every year, the Ontario government allocates substantial funds to support employers in hiring, training and retaining employees. This initiative promotes job creation and skills development while encouraging long-term employment. One key program under this initiative is the Brokered Incentive Agreement (BIA).

What is the Brokered Incentive Agreement (BIA)?

The BIA offers financial support to help cover the costs associated with hiring, training and onboarding new employees. This program provides several benefits, including cost savings, improved productivity through on-the-job training and access to new talent.
