SF Works - Helping San Francisco Employers Access Hiring Tax Credits





We've posted on the blog previously about the JOBS NOW! program; now, SF Works is helping San Francisco employers access hiring tax credits. These credits are significant, are available to all kinds of companies of all sizes, are triggered by all kinds of employees and can be retroactive.  Many companies are not accessing these credits or not fully accessing these credits, often because they don't know the amount of credit available or don't have the capacity to do the application.

SF Works partners with a leading tax credit service firm that processes the credits working with a company's finance lead and there is no cost to employers until they are realized. Working with SF Works to access your hiring tax credits provides a valuable community service; SF Works uses customary fees from this service to help lower-wage workers access community resources that can save them an average of $1,500 annually on everyday expenses such as healthcare, transportation or utilities and also connects them to resources such as free financial, legal and career services. 

SF Works has worked with many leading large and small San Francisco employers including Pet Camp, Recology and Rose Pistola.  To find out how you can be involved in saving money and multiplying those savings into assistance to your employees, please contact Thomas Peeks, tpeeks@sfworks.org or (415) 217-5192.

SF Works is a workforce support nonprofit housed in the San Francisco Chamber of Commerce, more information on SF Works and these tax credits can be found here.
