Recruitment firm offers $10,000 annual childcare payment to employees

Childcare costs are out of control in Australia and one firm wants to do something about it by offering a $10,000 childcare subsidiary to employees.

And they will offer it for every child an employee has, every year, until the child is four.

The bold initiative was launched by u&u Recruitment Partners last week, with managing director Craig Sneesby declaring that the first-of-its-kind subsidiary is aimed at helping families ease the financial pain that comes with having a child and making it easier for them to return to work and progress their careers.

It’s one of the most generous financial incentive packages for families we have seen.
