Gov. announces job creation plan

Governor Susana Martinez outlined her plan to help New Mexico small businesses hire and train new workers Monday in a speech to local builders and business owners. 

Governor Martinez detailed her plans for a new, $1000 tax credit to businesses for each job created, as well as a $4.75 million increase to the state’s existing Job Training Incentive Program, which covers part of an employee’s salary while they are receiving training from their employer. 
The tax credit would be available to businesses that employ fewer than 100 workers and hire a new employee between January 1, 2013 and December 31, 2014. The job must be maintained for at least two years in order for the business to qualify for the credit.
