Invista na sua equipa a custo zero com a medida Cheque-Formação

Keeping a qualified, up-to-date team is one of the most critical pillars of productivity and competitiveness for any company. However, balancing the available budget with the legal vocational training requirements (such as the 40 hours per employee per year required by the Labor Code) can be a challenge.

This is where the IEFP Training Check program plays a key role. It is a financial instrument created to boost the qualification of the workforce in companies, covering the costs of skills development.

At Alves & Rasteiro, we take this opportunity one step further: we turn this measure into a 100% free, bureaucracy-free solution for your organization.

What is the Training Voucher (Cheque-Formação) program?

The Training Voucher (Cheque-Formação) is direct financial support from the IEFP aimed at training company employees and adjusting their qualifications to the needs of the job market.

Typically, IEFP support funds up to 90% of the training cost. What makes Alves & Rasteiro different is that we cover the remaining 10%. This way, we ensure your company benefits from complete professional training plans at Zero Cost.

4 Reasons to take advantage of this opportunity in your company

1. Certified Training at Zero Cost

Upskilling employees requires investment. With IEFP financial support combined with Alves & Rasteiro's contribution, your company bears no financial cost for delivering the training.

2. Compliance with Labor Law

The law requires companies to provide each employee with at least 40 hours of continuous training every year. The Training Voucher lets you meet this legal obligation, avoiding fines or penalties without affecting your business's cash flow.

3. Tailor-Made Training Content

Every business has unique specificities. Training courses are developed taking into account the operational reality of your sector, ensuring that the time your employees invest translates directly into gains in productivity, efficiency and safety.

4. Operational Flexibility

We know that stopping operations for training can be complicated. That is why the plans can be adapted to your company's schedule, combining in-person or online formats to minimize the impact on the work routine.

Alves & Rasteiro takes care of everything!

One of the biggest obstacles to using these public support programs is the complexity of the administrative processes. To make sure your company can focus its time on what really matters — running the business — Alves & Rasteiro manages the entire process:

  • Eligibility analysis
  • Application submission
  • Training delivery
  • Administrative follow-up until the process is closed

How to get started?

Investing in the people who make your company grow does not have to mean high costs or administrative hassle.

If you want to meet the legal training requirements, increase your team's operational performance and take advantage of 100% funding, the process is simple.
