Isn’t this what the program was designed for?

Any one who's ever worked in employment services could have told you this would amount to nothing. This is not how you get vulnerable people into work. Pure idiocy!

opa1420 It is so widespread as to be meaningless that one single business repays a small amount of money when you look at all the wage theft that has and is going on.

SurprisedOwl Intentioned

Normal

Then what program are the MP expenses routs & PM lies & crooked government under again the government attacks the little guy & they rip of the system everyday without any recourse whatsoever what’s it tell you about the PM & his gov crooked as hell

No one bent over?

Another failed Morrison Marketing exercise paid for by the taxpayer.

If about 11,000 gained from this, at $840M, this is $73k per success?!

davidbewart Nobody is employed through these programs money making exercise for the training provider's.

Name and shame these grubs!

Typical Australian Run business. Abuse of employees is rife across Australia. It’d be worse if there were no unions.

Like gee nobody ever expected that to happen!! Well apart from EVERY single person in my feed! SenatorCash

Since when do young people need internships to fry chips and make beds.

Didn't we all know this would happen cheap labour programme heads dhould roll.

sallymcmanus i know a legal firm used a lot of interns and same, interns disappointed there would be no job, just another intern to take over. don't know whether they were getting govt. subsidy.

Should be named as well.

Nothing new. I worked in a business 20 years ago that repeatedly reduce hours as soon as each 6 month subsided funding period ended. The fact that no one from Centrelink/Govt figured this out and stopped funding always infuriated me

just one hey

Wonder who the service provider was...?

YOUTH JOBS PATH is just Scott's marketing slogan With most gov incentives there have so many crooks trying to profiteer Totally heartless Like Scott's bus tour in Qld it is mainly for publicity stunt He has poor record in service delivery Incompetent n sloppy like Jerusalem

It only stands to reason when buisness are given $$ incentives to employ young people for nothing or very small wage and time limits to ABUSE it. I havent heard of any buisness that employs after the $$ incentive runs out. They just get another. It's a RORT

Hands up if you knew this system would be abused by greedy employers wanting slave labour.

Taxpayer funded worker exploitation. Nothing better exemplifies the ATM government auspol

That success rating is shockingly low
