Does a small business ownerƒ??s pay scale influence their chance of getting national government grants?

An applicant’s pay scale does not directly influence the chance of getting national government grants for a small business. Many prominent systems using a graded pay scale have been said to unduly reward certain individuals based off of their seniority and not their ability. Any serious discussions regarding moving to a pay scale eligibility condition like that would require a dialogue about those issues, and vocal opponents may prevent that from happening. We will be sure to track any changes to the national scale and you can get in touch with us by phone at 020 3880 8554 or online via our information request form in order to learn of any impending changes.
