Targeted Initiative for Older Workers

On October 17th, 2006, the Honourable Diane Finley announced that the Government of Canada will make available up to $70 million for the Targeted Initiative for Older Workers. This two year initiative will help unemployed older workers in communities experiencing ongoing high unemployment and/or with a high reliance on a single industry affected by downsizing. Projects will be designed to improve the employability of participants from 55 to 64 years of age, and may assist them through activities such as prior learning assessment, skills upgrading, and experience in new fields of work.

The Targeted Initiative for Older Workers is cost-shared between the Government of Canada and provinces and territories. Participating provinces and territories will be responsible for targeting programming and the funding of projects.

To find out whether the Targeted Initiative for Older Workers is available in a particular province or territory, and to obtain a contact for further information, click on the "participating provinces and territories" site.
