Plans to merge the National Careers Service and Jobcentres are an exciting opportunity, but progress is too slow. We call for a joint @DWPgovuk & @educationgovuk strategy, a review of funding, and clear accountability. Read our report ⬇️

Jobcentres are too focused on benefits. The current system leaves little time for job-seekers to find long-term, secure jobs. We're calling for further reforms to the system. Learn more and read our report 👇
We've published our report on Get Britain Working: Pathways to Work. We welcome the concessions that the Government made to the UC Bill. However, there are still issues with the welfare reforms. Read the report 👇
Yesterday, we questioned Work and Pensions Secretary, Liz Kendall at our session on the work of @DWPgovuk. Watch the video to hear her view on tackling high welfare costs ⬇️
According to @DWPgovuk there are around 700,000 disabled people who don’t currently have a job but want to work. We want to understand why progress on closing the ‘disability employment gap’ has stalled and what can be done about it. Share your views: committees.parliament.uk/call-for-evide…
