Your real odds

This is a structured employment subsidy program, so competitiveness works differently than a scored grant pool.

Access depends on hiring intent and a partnership with RLI, and eligibility criteria drive the decision rather than a ranked application process.

What it takes

Contact RLI to discuss your hiring needs and identify the right program (Employment Partnership, Youth Summer Employment, or Group Training)1–2 days

Partner with RLI and confirm the Métis worker(s) to be hired or trained1–2 weeks

Submit wage subsidy or funding application through RLI1 week

Worth knowing

If you are a not-for-profit employer, the Youth Summer Employment program reimburses up to 100% of wages up to minimum wage, while other employers receive 50%, so your org type directly changes what you get back.
