Better Jobs Ontario
Effective April 29, 2022, Ontario government expanded the program to better help people who may face challenges finding stable jobs, youth and people on social assistance. If you have been unemployed for six months or longer, and are part of a low-income household, you may benefit from these changes.
To better reflect the expansion of the program, we renamed the program Better Jobs Ontario (formerly Second Career).
