Wage support program available for eligible DASCH front-line workers.

Wage support program available for eligible DASCH front-line workers.

The province of Manitoba recently announced that eligible front-line workers providing direct patient or residential care to vulnerable Manitobans will receive a $5 per hour wage supplement for worked hours where the regular wage is less than $25 per hour.

This means that some of DASCH’s Direct Support Workers may be entitled to receive this supplement.

For full information on the program, including eligibility requirements, how to apply and application deadlines, please click here: (hyper link to: https://manitoba.ca/covid19/programs/caregiver-wage-support.html)

Please note that if approved, the payment will come direct to you from the Manitoba Government and not from DASCH.

If you have further questions regarding this program, please contact the Manitoba CWSP directly at 204-945- 3744 or email mgi@gov.mb.ca.
