The Ontario Self-Employment Benefit (OSEB) Program provides eligible individuals with financial assistance for a fixed period of time while they are starting up a new business. Partner agencies assess client suitability for self-employment and evaluate business proposals.
The OSEB Program is delivered in partnership with the Ministry of Training Colleges and Universities, Government of Canada and the business community.
To be eligible for the OSEB Program participants must meet specific conditions as determined by the Ministry. For further information, or to initiate the process, please contact Employment Ontario at 1.800.387.5656.
