North Lanarkshire's Working For My Business. It Can Work For Yours, Too!
North Lanarkshire's Working, an employability partnership led by North Lanarkshire Council, identifies and trains unemployed individuals, and matches them to local employers.Companies recruiting through the initiative may have access to wage subsidies and will receive support from a dedicated team to ensure that the people placed within their organisation will benefit their business.
North Lanarkshire's Working makes the recruitment process simpler by selecting applicants who are keen to get back to work and already have some of the skill you require. The team can also provide tailored training programmes.
Funky Monkeys, a children's play area in Coatbridge, recruited half of its staff through North Lanarkshire's Working.
Manager Fraser Thomson said: 'The main benefit from an employers's perspective has to be the quality of the candidates and the fact that the process to recruit them is made so easy for you.
'One girl, a 25-year-old who had been unemployed for a year, has turned out to be one of our best members of staff and has been promoted to supervisor.'
Over 100 businesses in the area have already taken advantage. Don't miss out; with our help, finding employees in your area can be a lot easier than you think!
Call our helpline on 0800 0730 226 or visit the North Lanarkshire's Working website to receive details of how we can help your business.
