Hiring aids
A new calculation method for aid for apprenticeship contracts
Publié le 04 novembre 2025 - Public Service / Directorate of Legal and Administrative Information (Prime Minister)
Do you employ one or more apprentices? Do you receive support for this? New payment arrangements apply to aid granted to employers of apprentices.
The decree of 31 October 2025 provides that the amount of the one-off and one-off support to apprentice employers is now prorated to the number of days worked.
This provision concerns the aid paid for the first and last month of the apprenticeship contract.
Which apprenticeship contracts are concerned?
The decree applies to apprenticeship contracts of less than one year or having been subject to an early termination.
Contracts in progress and contracts concluded from 1er November 2025 falls within the scope of application of this measure.
For contracts already in progress, only the last month of the apprenticeship contract will be affected by the proratization.
Example :
For an apprenticeship contract ending on Thursday, December 4, 2025, the assistance paid to the employer is calculated on a pro rata basis, i.e. 4 days. Previously, the aid was paid for the full month.
