A Peter someone, sorry I did not catch his surname, from an organisation,, America Works, was outlining their methods of getting the unemployed with special needs, working. Certainly forget training was part of his message .....<br /><br />The guy is meeting with the DWP later in the day .....<br /><br />http://www.americaworks.com/<br /><br />As was pointed out The States economy is hardly booming!Simonenoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6941116624675227992.post-25431418436344589752011-05-06T01:44:11.464-07:002011-05-06T01:44:11.464-07:00Money For Jam

We do this by helping them to find work, skills, direction – or whatever it is they need.<br /><br />I am just wondering if they are in breach of Advertising Authority rules. From direct personal experience they fail to deliver. On the other hand the word aim might be viewed as a get out clause.<br /><br />I am just back from signing on and told that Stage 5 has now finished and I have a new Adviser. The next stage in a couple of weeks is The Work Programme. It will not be a4e again, thankfully, as I am in central London so probably Ingeus who as Work Directionns I was under three years ago..<br /><br />In less than two months I will have reached state pension. I wonder if Ingeus will claim a bonus for me signing off!Simonenoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6941116624675227992.post-83367518173431002482011-05-05T14:31:18.649-07:002011-05-05T14:31:18.649-07:00Had to laugh when I saw the word "Brave"...Had to laugh when I saw the word "Brave" in the following. "To be considered for this role you must be able to demonstrate A4e’s ‘DNA’ – Trusted, Passionate, Driven, Brave, Friendly and Caring." <br /><br />When was the last time you saw that in a job advert? Perhaps they mean brave in the sense of standing up to bolshy clients?<br /><br />On a different topic, the official A4e site says they have the option to be a sub-contractor for other providers in several areas of the UK!Milly Tantnoreply@blogger.com
