How will the Government mitigate the risk that GRIT will displace mid-career workers?
The traineeship allowance and duration of GRIT traineeships have been calibrated to be lower and shorter than the support provided for full-time employment of mid-career workers. For example, the traineeship allowance for GRIT, at $1,800-$2,400, is lower than that for the Mid-Career Pathways Programme (MCPP), at $1,800-$3,800.
There will also be safeguards to ensure that Host Organisations have not undertaken retrenchment measures for roles that are similar to those proposed for GRIT traineeships.
