How it Works

Employers who are a good fit for on-the-job training enter a training contract with the Nebraska Department of Labor (NDOL). OJT candidates:

• Cannot have worked at the employer previously
• Must also work in a full-time position that pays a minimum of $13.50 hourly

 Eligible Employers are:

• Private for-profit businesses, private non-profit organizations, or public sector
• Providing workers compensation
• Up-to-date on Unemployment Insurance (UI) tax
• Not debarred or suspended from receiving federal contracts
• Hiring a worker or multiple workers who were impacted by a layoff
