SF Works helps businesses establish eligibility for the businesses themselves and their workers. 
- If your company has paid state income taxes in the last 3-4 years, SFWorks can help you establish if you're eligible for a refund with interest! Basically, you need to have three criteria to qualify:
a. Be in the SF Enterprise Zone b. Been profitable and paid CA state income taxes in the last 3-4 years c. Have hired in the last 3-4 years. New graduates are one great category and can trigger up to $37,000 in tax credits. - Are you looking for ways to show appreciation and increased benefits for your employees? Low income workers can get access to community resources, saving them up to $2000 annually (reduced utility expenses, discounted MUNI, savings on auto insurance, free life insurance, etc.).

Great job!! Your New Year's resolutions are in motion. How do I know this you may ask....from all of the calls that have been coming in regarding new job openings, upcoming events, hires, new initiatives, commitments etc. And even if you're thinking, "not," there is gain from glauming off of the group momentum. One key is to make sure you're continuing to take action. Action begets action.
