THE PROGRAM EMPLOYS OVER 3000 SAINT LUCIANS FOR A 5 DAY PERIOD FROM MONDAY 3RD TO FRIDAY 7TH AUGUST 2026
The Saint Lucia Social Development Fund (SSDF) announces the commencement of the STEP Program for August 2026. The program employs over three thousand (3,000) Saint Lucians for a 5-day period from Monday 3rd August to Friday 7th August 2026.
The first phase will concentrate on the Secondary Roads in various communities around the island. Residents and motorists are advised to be cautious and cooperative when approaching the work sites.
The Program is a pre-emptive and strategic intervention of clearing road verges, drains, culverts, and water channels in communities, all in an effort to improve motorist visibility, reduce mosquito breeding grounds, reduce the possibility of flooding, and improve community aesthetics. The program also serves as an economic stimulant at the community and national level.
