As more jobs come back online in late summer and early fall, we anticipate many rental companies will be thinking about increasing their staffing to pre-strike levels. PERG’s Equitable Workforce Initiative provides a grant that covers all costs for the first six months of employment—salary and benefits—for eligible entry-level new hires up to a cap. Rental companies who participate in the program will take on responsibility for providing trainees with a broad industry perspective, documented training, and mentorship intended to inspire long-term interest and spark a career.
The Program is available to all PERG-member rental companies. There are five grants currently available that will be awarded on a first-come-first-served basis to five rental companies when they identify and hire an eligible applicant. Before you start the search for an employee, complete a simple application form with your job listing. You hire the employee who best suits your needs. Eligible job seekers also complete an application with EWI prior to hire. You are under no obligation prior to hiring the EWI trainee.
