JobsPlus is a new simplified scheme which replaced the Employer Job (PRSI) Exemption (effective from 20 June 2010) and Revenue Job Assist (which commenced on 6 April 1998) schemes and is more targeted at channelling full time job opportunities to the longer term unemployed. Table 1 shows details of application by county and the number of approved applicants in each county. Table 2 shows the breakdown by Dublin postcode area.
