From there, we help identify potential opportunities that may align with your business and assist with the administrative process, which can include applications, onboarding, documentation coordination, and reporting guidance.
Do you handle the entire process?
Dagan Advisory provides administrative guidance and support throughout the process; however, employers remain responsible for their own hiring decisions, payroll administration, employee supervision, and operational compliance.
Are these grants or loans?
Most workforce funding programs are structured as wage subsidies or reimbursement-based support programs and generally do not require repayment, provided program terms and eligibility requirements are met.
Each program operates differently and specific terms vary.
