TWO KEY CHANGES LIVE NOW ARE HIGHLIGHTED BELOW :

Incentive payments for hiring a new apprentice – this document confirms that there are no limits on the number of eligible incentives that can be applied for and these will be paid to the same profile as the existing £1000 employer incentives

The number of reservations for employers who do not pay the apprenticeship levy has increased from 3 to 10 FROM 15th JULY
