The program also encourages employers to trial a young person for a job by offering financial incentives to reduce the cost of recruitment.
Youth Jobs PaTH has three key elements: Prepare - Trial - Hire.
- Prepare: Young people will be prepared for work through Employability Skills Training to help improve their chances of finding and keeping a job.

Interns receive a $200 fortnightly incentive payment on top of their income support and are covered by insurance, both paid by the Australian Government.
- Hire: Employers who hire an eligible young person can receive up to $10,000 to help contribute to the costs of hiring and training.
