Dáil Éireann Debate, Wednesday - 14 December 2011
140 Deputy Seán Ó Fearghaíl asked the Minister for Social Protection the number of community employment and job initiative schemes currently operational in County Kildare; the number of participants in each scheme; and if she will make a statement on the matter. [40123/11]
View answerCommunity employment (CE) helps long-term unemployed people to re-enter the active workforce by breaking their experience of unemployment through a return to work routine. Some 1,100 organisations in the community, voluntary and not-for-profit sectors provide work and training placements for participants nationwide. The number of placements available during 2011, including supervisor positions, was of the order of 23,300. Places are allocated regionally to reflect the underlying level of unemployment.
Current information on community employment and job initiative (JI) schemes operational in County Kildare and the numbers of participants and supervisors engaged is set out in the following tables. In delivering these placements, the Department of Social Protection-FÁS will continue to operate with sponsor organisations in a flexible manner in order to maximise progression to the labour market and ensure placements are fully utilised, while at the same time facilitating support for the delivery of community services.
