PARLIAMENTARY WRITTEN QUESTION
Employment Schemes (28 October 2015)

Question Asked

To ask the Secretary of State for Work and Pensions, what plans he has to monitor sustained employment through the Work Based Sector Employment scheme beyond 13 week follow-up enquiries to employers.

Asked by:
Alison McGovern (Labour)

Answer

Official statistics record starts to sector-based work academy pre-employment training only. The Department does not collate information on outcomes, nor the number of benefit claimants finding work through a sector-based work academy placement. There are no current plans to do so.


Official statistics are available on GOV.UK at:
