KITIMAT

By DON SCHAFFER

Herald Staff writer

The Provincial Youth
Employment Program is
helping to provide full-
time jobs for about 35
people in northwestern
B.C. who whould not
otherwise have them,
according to Pat Allen,

field co-ordinator for the

project.

@ program, run by
the provincial ministry of
labour, has operated:

‘since 1974 as a summer

program. This year,
however, it has entered
an extension phase which
sees jobs being created

for young people on a.

permanent basis.

The objective of the
program is to provide
young people between the
ages of 15 and 24 with the.
opportunity to develop
skill which will assist
them in entering the work
force. Initially the

Robbery suspect

custody at the show cause
hearing Thursday in

. Atentative trial date of
Dec. 14 in Kitimat was
set and the hearing put
over until Monday in

accused to obtain legal
counsel.

Fraser Indicated that some

-members of the provincial

cabinet were lobbying
strongly for the dry-docked
Queen of Surrey to be
transferred ta B.C.
Steamships to replace the
Princess Marguerite on a
Victoria-seattle run. The
move would leave Queen

Charlotte Islands without the

services of the Queen of
Prince Rupert--a plan an-

service to help these
young people find
summer employment,
but in the extension phase
the prgram offers em-
ployers who can provide
training for young people
areimbursement of up to
half the new employee's
wages while he is being
trained

This reimbursement is
being offered to help
defray the costs of
training new employees,
which are sometimes
considerable. The
reimbursement is paid to
employers who intend to
hire the youths as per-
manent fulltime em-
ployees after the training
period is completed.

“People who have just
left school really benefit
from this program,”
Allen said. ‘The program
provides on-the-job
training for these people,
which is really an im-
portant kind of learning.”
