March 15, 2021

Wednesday 10th March 2021: The Ministry of Finance, Economic Planning and Trade will be publishing the April to November 2020 lists of all beneficiaries of the Financial Assistance for Job Retention (FA4JR) scheme by the end of March.

As the scheme is winding up at the end of this month, the Ministry is currently compiling the list of beneficiaries to be published. It will follow the format adopted for the December list of beneficiaries.

To facilitate access, the lists will be uploaded on the website of the ministry, www.finance.gov.sc.

The Financial Assistance for Job Retention Scheme was launched in March 2020.

During the first two months, all sectors which had applied were considered. In June, the assistance was automatic for all businesses who had benefitted in May, except for those who featured on the Restrictive List. As of July, the only change was that the assistance was extended only to Seychellois and individuals with Permanent Residency.

Assistance provided to individuals (both employees and self-employed) has been capped at an amount of SR 30,000.00

The Ministry is publishing the list of beneficiaries in line with its vision of accountability transparency and good governance.
