Florida Back to Work was a subsidized employment program that reimbursed employers who hired program participants. Employers were required to put the individuals on their payroll and were then reimbursed for 80 to 95 percent of the costs associated with employing the program participant. Employers included nonprofits, for-profits, and public agencies. For-profit organizations were required to commit to keeping an employee on their payroll for the duration of the program, whereas nonprofits were encouraged to do so.
