We're pleased to share some fantastic news with you: the Government has announced the removal of employers' contributions for apprentices under the age of 22.
Starting April 1st, 2024, you can hire new apprentices up to the age of 22 without having to pay the usual 5% contribution. This change could translate into significant savings, potentially up to £550 per apprentice for your business.
So, how does this impact you and your team?
This means that investing in your team's training up to Level 3 has now become much more financially attractive. Qualified Level 2 hairdressers or beauty therapists can now continue their learning and creative development with an advanced apprenticeship without additional costs to you if they start before their 22nd birthday.
So now you can confidently broaden your talent pool when searching for new team members looking for a hair or beauty career, with our recruitment service. Whether it's a 22-year-old with valuable experience from other industries or a 19-year-old fresh out of college or university they can all start on an apprenticeship journey without your salon having to contribute to their training costs.
