Taking on an apprentice has never been easier, thanks to the GTO Wage Subsidy.

This initiative supports eligible building and construction businesses to employ more apprentices by subsidising up to 75% of their wages, reducing upfront costs and helping grow the industry workforce.

The expanded subsidy is available from 1 July, but places are limited! You’ll need to act quickly to avoid missing out.

For Lewis, a good day on site is more than just getting the job done. It’s learning new skills, backing yourself, and finishing the day proud of what you’ve built.

His journey is a reminder that an apprenticeship can be the start of something bigger, a hands-on pathway that builds real capability, confidence, and career options over time.

If you’re curious about where building and construction could take you, this is what it looks like when you back yourself and get stuck in.

The fuel crisis is driving up construction costs and builders are wearing the impact. 👷‍♀️

With many projects locked into fixed price contracts, our members are often unable to pass on rising costs, placing significant pressure on businesses and increasing the risk of insolvency.

That’s why targeted government support is critical to help manage these cost pressures. This includes ensuring the building and construction industry is recognised as an essential service if fuel shortages continue to escalate, so projects can continue as planned and supply chains remain operational.

Here’s what MBAWA CEO Matt Moran said about this on ABC Radio Breakfast this morning:
