Benefit for company if hire unemployed person

Hello,

Could anyone please clear my matter in Ireland.

Does company get any benefit if hiring someone who is currently unemployed?

I search from internet, found only ''Revenue job assist'' which seems just give the deduction from accounting matter.

For example, in Finland, the company will get the whatever benefits that the current unemployed is receiving. This amount (normally at the minimum of about 600euro/month) is very good to support for company to pay the salary.

AFAIK if the person is unemployed for 6 months or more the employer does not pay Employer PRSI for a period after the person starts.

And if that applies to people unemployed, is it really only people on the live register?

Sometimes there are exemptions for things like JobBridge where the potential employee is off the Live register but still eligible.

Hello,

Thank you very much for your info. It really helps.

I am seeking further helps/support from state for starting new business. My field would be related to plastic products. The project may creates 10 vacancies.

Is selling product through/by phone is popular in Ireland? (I am running this business in Finland and it works well).
