THE long-term unemployed would receive a $6500 bonus if they can find and keep a job for two years, under a plan launched by Opposition Leader Tony Abbott.
Mr Abbott also used an election campaign visit to the NSW Central Coast to announce a relocation allowance for jobseekers.
"The best form of welfare is work," Mr Abbott said on Tuesday.
Under the plan, people aged 18 to 30 who had been unemployed for 12 months or more, and were on Newstart allowance or youth allowance, would receive a $2,500 bonus if they secured a job and remained off welfare for a continuous period of 12 months.
A further bonus of $4,000 would be paid if the jobseeker remained in a job and off welfare continuously for 24 months.
Jobseekers who moved to a regional area to take up a job would receive an additional bonus of up to $6000, or $3000 if they moved from a regional area to a capital city.
The relocation allowance would be available to people on Newstart or youth allowance for more than 12 months.
An extra $3000 would be paid if the jobseeker has dependent children.
Mr Abbott says more than 140,000 people have been jobless for more than 12 months.
"These sensible, targeted measures will help get people off welfare and into new jobs," he said.
The $75 million scheme would start on July 1, 2014.
Earlier in the campaign, the coalition launched a policy to roll out a pilot scheme for Tasmanian businesses to receive a $3250 payment for employing a long-term jobless person for six months or more.
