GET PAID TO HIRE

Golden Sierra Job Training Agency receives training funds from the Department of Labor (Workforce Innovation & Opportunity Act, WIOA), that provide hiring incentives to employers when they hire eligible job seekers.

Helping our Employers Create Jobs – Helping our Community get Back to Work

The program helps employers hire, train, and retain quali ed workers. Golden Sierra offers a hiring incentive, in the form of a wage reimbursement, to offset the costs of training a new employee.

Eligible participants are men and women with marketable skills who are currently out of work. They must meet Golden Sierra’s dislocated worker criteria.

This program is open to Placer, El Dorado and Alpine County Employers willing to hire, train and supervise new employees. Businesses in growing industry sectors will receive priority.

Wage reimbursement is available for up to six months.

Participants are your employees.

They may work up to 40 hours per week at an hourly wage of $15.50 or higher. Each month, the employer submits an invoice with copies of the employer’s timesheet and paystub. Golden Sierra will issue a wage reimbursement check for up to 75% of the participant’s wages.

The maximum reimbursement amount is $6,000 per individual hired.

There is no limit to the number of participants that can be placed with a single business, however the number may be limited to ensure proper supervision. Minimal paperwork required. The participant will complete eligibility paperwork and the employer will complete a contract and agree to submit monthly invoices for reimbursement.
