North Lanarkshire's Working : Business : Recruitment

Recruitment

North Lanarkshire’s Working is committed to investing in the most important part of your business – your people.

We believe mistakes have been made in previous recessions by not investing in training and young people and the council and its partners are committed to ensuring this doesn’t happen again.

Unemployment and in particular youth unemployment are at record high levels. We need your help to get North Lanarkshire Working again and we have plenty to offer to help your business grow and prosper.

We have secured finance to assist you to do this and some incentive packages are detailed below, with your help we can ensure we can make a change in young peoples’ lives.
