Employment in the Social Economy (ESEP) aims to:
• increase job opportunities for disadvantaged
groups and disabled persons in the labour market
• enhance the financial independence of
disadvantaged persons and prevent social
exclusion and marginalization;
• assist the voluntary sector in enhancing their
capabilities to provide services to those who use
them.
Through this project which is part – financed by the
European Social Fund, the Employment and
Training Corporation (ETC) will be providing
employment grants to organizations whose main
activity is not a commercial one, which seek to
recruit jobseekers falling under certain criteria.
IF YOU ARE:
a non-commercial organisation
based in Malta and/or Gozo
You may be eligible to employ full-time and/or
part-time employees to help in the running of your
organization and you will receive a grant at a fixed
rate of €4,500 per annum for full-time employment
or €2,250 per annum for part-time employment.
