由于理事会的格林威治机会,学习与发展计划(Gold)计划和人力,格林威治皇家自治市镇的数百名失业居民得到了帮助。

推出黄金是为了帮助受益于福利的居民。它的目的是通过提供有偿工作经验和基于就业的培训来帮助他们克服就业障碍。

人力不仅会雇用所有参与者,而且团队还通过过渡到就业来为他们提供持续的支持。

自2013年4月启动该计划以来,该工作的231名失业居民受益于这个就业跳板,其中许多人已经失业了多年或从未工作过。

完成该计划的参与者中有60%的工作已经获得了工作,其结果比主流计划要高得多。

GOLD was initially launched by the Council to place participants in its Environment Services team, and with Manpower’s help it has since expanded across other service areas, including Housing, Children’s Services and Revenues and Benefits – testament to the success of the Council’s scheme and Manpower’s on-going dedication to helping the unemployed get back into work.
