Apprentice Tool Allowance

Grant Description

The Apprentice Tool Allowance is designed to reduce financial barriers for construction apprentices and trainees by reimbursing up to $2,000 of work-related tool and safety equipment costs—$1,000 at the start of training and $1,000 on successful completion—on purchases made between 1 July 2024 and 30 June 2029. By offsetting up-front expenses, the program helps apprentices focus on building practical skills, strengthens workplace safety through access to modern protective gear, and supports the Western Australian Government’s goal of boosting skilled-trades workforce capacity across regional and metropolitan areas.
