As the Deputy will be aware, JobPath is an employment activation service for people who are long-term unemployed (LTU) and those most at risk of becoming long-term unemployed to secure and sustain paid employment.
Clients are randomly selected for participation and the protocols for selection currently preclude the selection of anyone who has already completed JobPath within the previous six months.
However, an immediate re-referral to JobPath will be facilitated where a person asks to be returned to JobPath at the end of the 52 weeks and the JobPath provider confirms that the person, with an additional period of support has a strong chance of progressing into a full time sustainable job.
