Better Jobs Ontario

People facing challenges finding a stable job

• Effective April 29, 2022, we expanded the program to better help people who may face challenges finding stable jobs, such as gig workers, youth, and people on social assistance. If you have been unemployed for six months or longer, and are part of a low-income household, you may benefit from these changes. To better reflect the expansion of the program, we have renamed it to Better Jobs Ontario.
