description

The Government is taking a number of steps to promote wellbeing and jobsearch. Research has found that claimants who struggle with their jobsearch or work related activity include those with deteriorating health, mental health conditions or are in a post treatment situation.

The Department for Work and Pensions intend to carry out a trial that will test and evaluate the JOBS II model (UK version, 2015 - see reference below) in the UK labour market. JOBS II is a group based Programme delivered in five half-day sessions, averaging 4 hours a day over the period of a working week.

The purpose of this provision is twofold:

the provision will test the effectiveness in the UK labour market of the JOBS ll Programme and Manual, and whether it improves the employment and wellbeing prospects for the departments claimants; and,
to collect pre and post evaluation Management Information (MI) and six psychological wellbeing and jobsearch measures from participants.

The trial is expected to support 3,000 starts and to run for up to 13 months from the first referral.
