Give Us A Job! (Recession Hits)

**Barry69** · 03-09-2008, 16:59

The Recession has arrived and first hit is the building trade

My lads whom both live and work in Chepstow they work for a tiling company and have been told they are to be layed off at the end of October both are now looking for employment or retraining with the assitance of the system they hope?

Can anyone help, they are good hard working lads and any help on the job front or goverment sponsored retraining facilities available out there will be greatly received!

Many Thanks

Barry

As the Recession affects more may be the call for assitance will increase!
