The Ontario Summer Jobs program will contribute $2.00 per hour for a maximum of 560 hours to hire students ages 14-24 during the months beginning April 1 to September 30, 2010. Students must be returning to full time studies in the fall. The maximum number of students that can be subsidized under this program varies with the quantity of applicants, employer location and program delivery agent. Although, employers have received funding to hire up to 10 summer students, the average is two students per applicant.

Because of the limited amount of program funding available, employers should apply as soon as possible.
