I have recently set up a new business in service sector. It is going very well and better than what I expected in first couple of months. At the moment I have no staff and no help whatsoever and I am desperate to take on someone to keep shop open and answer phones so I can meet clients and concentrate on building up the business. However I cannot afford this at the moment.
I have contacted Fas and asked if it was possible to take someone on work experience and hopefully in 1 year I would be able to pay a wage. (even parttime) They were of no help whatsoever and I was told to contact social welfare and inquire about back to work schemes. The person I spoke to there said that they only help employees and not employers and to contact Fas.
He was extremely unhelpful.
I have contacted Enterprise Board and they said they could not help me as I was in service sector. Surely there must be something in place.
How come the creche I send my sons to can take someone on one of those cedp schemes? They are not a voluntary organisation.
Is there any help available to help new businesses?????
