SWASP - Paid Employment Component
The Student Work and Service Program (SWASP) Paid Employment Component is designed to assist individuals who plan to attend or return to a post-secondary institution.
Who does it serve?
Post-secondary students
Description
Employers receive $4.50 per hour towards the student’s salary for a minimum of 5 weeks to a maximum of 14 weeks.
In addition to salary, students receive a $50.00 per week tuition voucher for every week worked under the program. This voucher is provided to students by the Department of Human Resources, Labour and Employment.
These positions will not result in the displacement of existing employees, or employees who are on lay-off, recall or absent because of work stoppage or labour/management dispute.
How to access?
Applications may be obtained from any office of the Department of Human Resources, Labour & Employment. Applications must originate from employers; however, students may use the Student Work and Service Program application in their job search.
