With several salary support and transformation schemes available, it can be difficult for employers to decide which to use. This guide compares CCP, JGI and SFEC and explains how they fit together in practice.

Who it targets
Key points
CCP
Reskill new hires or existing staff into new or redesigned roles
Up to 70% to 90% salary support for 3 to 6 months
Employers hiring SG/PR into growth or redesigned roles
Requires structured OJT and clear job change
JGI
Support net new local hiring, especially of mature or vulnerable workers
Historic scheme with salary support up to 18 months for qualifying hires
Employers that increased local headcount during scheme period
Closed for most new hires; only claims remain for old cohorts
SFEC
Offset business costs for training and enterprise development
Up to $10,000 per employer, covering up to 90% of qualifying costs
Employers that meet SkillsFuture criteria
Can be used on top of CCP to offset remaining out of pocket costs
Can these schemes be combined?
CCP + SFEC. Often used together, with SFEC offsetting residual company costs.
CCP + JGI. Not for the same staff and same period. You cannot double claim salary support.
Job Redesign Grant. May be layered with CCP if criteria are met and roles are clearly defined.
Which scheme to prioritise?
Use CCP when you redesign a role or reskill staff into growth functions.
Use SFEC to reduce cash outlay on training and advisory.
Legacy JGI is only relevant for employers that still have qualifying hires from earlier years.
