On the Job Training (OJT)
​When an employer identifies the need to fill a vacant position, they often have a choice of hiring a skilled worker or a worker who needs to have additional training. If you the employer is willing to hire an individual who has no prior experience in the vacant position, an on-the-job training contract may be for you! Operated under Goodwill Industries of Hawaii, the program pays up to 50% of the trainee’s wages during the specified training period. You the employer must agree to hire the trainee if he/she successfully completes the training.
There are numerous job opportunities that can be found here in Hawai‘i. However, due to varying circumstances, not everyone has the same chance to find and develop their personal careers. The Work Opportunity Tax Credit (WOTC) Program provides significant tax credit incentives to hire new employees that are from target groups identified by the U.S. Department of Labor.
As job seekers, everyone has the right to find a meaningful career path. However, some at-risk job seekers have great difficulty in finding meaningful employment. To help these job seekers find new careers, the Federal Bonding Program was implemented to provide additional peace of mind for employers when hiring these individuals.
