The Work Programme New Thread

out_of_cash

congrats on your reply, but i guess after reading that load of crap you are not any closer to a constructive answer,probably because they have none.Just another way of justifying their big fat pay packets,they actually think their doing good, which bloody infuriates me .

I am still waiting on a reply from grayling and co on how many jobs have been created on a permanent basis and how many with a hourly rate of pay which didnt need tax credit top ups.

This is what we've come to, people with good educations having to work for free (guarantee of job or not) in order to obtain work. It's one of those gradual processes that erodes all of our rights.

They really are taking the P, its so easy to dangle the carrott when people are down on their luck,this is happening thousands of times all across the uk,the more i re search this pile of !!!! WP, i just cant believe the total crap the ministers are comin out with,its like the DWP and work programme providers have been given a script and are on auto piolet.

Hi LaddyMissA,

do you have a specialist type of skill etc.work in a particular field.

If so, you maybe lucky and not get stuffed onto one of these pass the time of day courses. Ive heard the main reason they are doing these courses is that its free money for the providers to collect on,just send so mant people per course = £££££££££££££££ for them.:mad:

I have 20 experience in accounts and like I have said all this time they say there is nothing they can do or suggest for me so there are no courses or anything like that however I know they run an IT course for people to learn how to use a PC LOL

You will not get a reply from him as my letter went to him and Iain Duncun Smith first and they do not reply to the public unless you live where they are an MP so I kept on going till I got replies from the team who do reply on their behalf.

What jobs have been created? The WP is nothing to do with the creation of jobs

that explains things then, they will have a problem dealing with you.No dis- respect to anyone who isnt qualified or has a certain type of skill, but i think they will group as many of people who fall into that category 1st ,or maybe thats a too logical approach for them lol.

At least while they leave some people alone that will enable them to constructively look for a job rather than be bullied and hindered into working fo zero etc.

I do know if you p them off in some way,just to be bloody minded they send you on all sorts of crap,first aid course,how to dress your self etc:D

The idea is that they should be placing people in a job.

Problem= not enough jobs.:D

Wrong!! There are jobs! In the last 4 weeks I applied for 93 jobs but they have NO power to get anyone an interview let alone a job.

All the advisers I have seen have told me the same thing 'we do not have people like you here' and 'we wouldn't know what to do with you' etc and so on

Like I have said before and we have all read the WP is meant to be for the individual but they have nothing for me to do or any help they can give me so its proof this is all geared to the lowest common denominator!!

the bloke I saw last week even said 'the likes of these other people, dare I say it, don't want to work'!!!

They'll eventually try to get you into other jobs.

Eventually? When? How are they going to do that? I am also looking for admin work too.
