Healthy Hire Manitoba Program

The Government of Manitoba has announced a new hiring wage program that aims to encourage employees to get vaccinated and return to work. The program will offer active Manitoba-based businesses up to $5,000 per employee to a maximum $50,000 for 10 employees to help offset the wages of rehired or new employees who have received their COVID-19 vaccines or who can confirm that they have at least one vaccine booked.
