Scheme Benefits

This initiative supports disadvantaged job seekers, including individuals with disabilities, by providing real-world workplace experience and assisting them in their transition to employment. It allows job seekers to assess job suitability, while employers gain insight into the candidates’ abilities before hiring. With the support of Jobsplus and the Lino Spiteri Foundation, both parties can ensure the role aligns with the individual’s needs and the employer’s expectations, fostering positive employment outcomes.
