Minister of Labour Dion Foulkes speaks to the media about the Public Employment Services (PES) initiatives. In a statement, Mr Foulkes said the labour initiatives for the month of January “are a great jump start to actively engaging and connecting eligible job seekers with the appropriate job opportunities making for an easier process for job seekers and employers.” He added that the Department of Labour’s facilitation of these types of initiatives “will continue into the year as we hope the goal of decreasing levels of unemployment will be successfully achieved through these programmes.”
