The Saskatchewan Employment Supplement is a monthly payment that supplements the income earned by lower-income parents from wages, self-employment and child/spousal maintenance payments. The supplement assists parents with the child related costs of going to work and supports their decision to work. For families in receipt of income assistance programs, it helps them move from dependence on income assistance to the workforce.
