Work Inclusion
Our goal is that everyone, particularly those with significant barriers to overcome, receives support from business, to build the skills and confidence they need to gain and sustain employment.
As part of this goal, we call on businesses to guarantee a work placement for a disadvantaged person. Businesses can reach these groups through programmes such as BITC's Ready for Work. Please contact, Nicola Inge BITC's Work Inclusion Campaign Manager, to find out more.
What we're working on...
