More good news
Alistair Darling MP, Chancellor of the Exchequer, announced that the Department of Work and Pensions (DWP) will fund the creation of 250,000 jobs in the public and private sector through a scheme called the 'Future Jobs Fund'.

About Future Jobs Fund
This scheme is to encourage young people aged 18-24 into employment. For each person that you employ they will grant £6,500 to the employer that can be spent at your discretion. The only stipulation is that the role must a brand new position that has been created.

How does an employer access the Future Jobs Fund?
The government is due to make more announcements on this new initiative throughout the summer and we will keep you updated with any relevant information.

We hope that you find this information useful and are able to take advantage of what we see is a great opportunity for the hospitality industry.

Many thanks
