Business groups say the federal government's latest JobKeeper changes aimed at virus-hit Victoria will ensure more people stay in work
The multi-billion-dollar cost of Melbourne's prolonged lockdown has prompted the government to hold off plans to limit the scheme.
The federal government's latest JobKeeper changes are aimed at virus-hit Victoria, with business groups hopeful they will ensure more people stay in work.
Businesses will get easier access to the wage subsidies program with the injection of a further $15 billion, taking its total funding to just over $100 billion.
Eligibility criteria will also be eased when the scheme scales back at the end of September.
