Incentives to create new positions in export sectors
An extra £2m is being invested into an initiative to attract skilled workers to the Island.
The Department for Enterprise is expanding it's Employee Relocation Incentive, which offers employers in the export sector financial help in recruiting off-Island staff.
The scheme offers up to 20% of the first year's salary costs of a new position, capped at £10,000.
The Department says a pilot project over the past 12 months helped to secure over two hundred new employees.
Enterprise Minister Laurence Skelly says the initiative isn't intended to disadvantage local workers.
