Compulsory Jobs Guarantee

Proceeding contribution from Stephen Timms (Labour) in the House of Commons on Wednesday, 11 February 2015. It occurred during Opposition day on Compulsory Jobs Guarantee.

I will make a little more progress and then I will gladly give way again.

The Government would cover the costs to employers of paying national minimum wage and national insurance for a 25-hour week plus £500 per employee to help businesses with training, admin and set-up costs. In return, employers would be expected to provide training and development for those taking part and show how the jobs were additional—not replacing existing jobs and not leading to somebody else losing their job or seeing a reduction in hours.
