Amidst concerns that the worryingly high number of out-of-work 16 to 24-year-olds will become a "lost generation" in employment terms, there are a plethora of work initiatives. One of these is the Get Britain Working scheme, under which job centres can arrange unpaid work experience placements for unemployed people. Initially the placements chicago #10 jersey are voluntary. The programme offers the long-term unemployed work experience or training. Financial incentives are provided to employers.
There is a real opportunity for those seeking work to get some useful experience. However, if jobseekers opt to take part but then don't attend and fail to provide a good reason for absence, their benefits could be removed. This has led to concerns as to whether the placements are genuinely voluntary. Predictably critics have argued that some companies are using the scheme for cheap labour.
There have been a few unfortunate incidents (though I suspect in most cases this is more accidental than genuinely an intention chicago #10 jersey to cynically exploit). For example, the Tesco at Bury St Edmunds posted a job advert looking for permanent night-shift workers at its branch, in exchange for jobseeker's allowance "plus expenses". It swiftly removed this from the Jobseekers' Plus website
The company has now written to the Department of Work and Pensions suggesting that, to avoid any misunderstanding about the voluntary nature of the scheme, the current risk of losing benefits should be removed.?
