The Federal Government is encouraging small businesses to apply for grants of up to $15,000 to help them better the balance between work and family.
As of February 25, eligible businesses with less than 15 employees can qualify for the money. Round 1 of the program has already proved successful, assisting with flexible working hour agreements or work from home arrangements.
Some businesses even installed family rooms within their offices.
Applications for the second round of the grant close on 31 March 2010.
If you’re a small business looking for a loan, or looking to refinance your current commercial loan, contact your local Loan Market broker for further information.
