Recommendation 27
27
Increase Heat Training Grant to fully compensate workers for lost earnings during retrofit upskilling.
Recommendation
The Government should increase the value of the Heat Training Grant to provide workers with full compensation for lost earnings when taking time off work to upskill on low carbon retrofit. This should take effect until market demand provides sufficient incentives for the workforce, supply chain and employers to self-fund training. (Recommendation, Paragraph 139) 64
