The JobMaker Hiring Credit scheme is a government incentive that encourages businesses to employ job seekers aged 16–35.

Eligible businesses can access the JobMaker Hiring Credit for each eligible employee hired between 7 October 2020 and 6 October 2021.

For all the details, visit the ATO website.

Key points

Nominate and declare eligible employees via Single Touch Payroll reporting
Pay eligible employees as normal and claim a credit from the ATO for each JobMaker period
Credits are $200/week for eligible additional employees aged 16–29, and $100/week for those aged 30–35
You cannot claim JobKeeper and JobMaker at the same time.

What do I need to do?

While we're getting things ready at our end, there are a few things you can do now:

DO NOT manually create pay items for JobMaker—they won't be reported to the ATO. We're working on updates that'll take care of this for you.

We're working with the ATO to ensure MYOB Essentials is updated to help you manage JobMaker. We'll update this topic as soon as we have more details.
