Rejected petition Regulations for JSA claimer's length of time claiming & a way of whistle blowing

Often when recruiting new employees I get 100's of applicants but only a few respond when the're invited 2 interview. Sometimes the're honest & tell you they only applied for JSA. So there needs 2 be a way of reporting them. I know people that have been claiming 4 years. There should be a cut off.

More details

Why not set a 6 month limit? Then have them do Community work to earn there money at NMW. Or come and work for local business for a reduced cost to the employer? Can't there be a phone number of email for employers to contact people they suspect?
The system needs to change to make it pay to go out to work!
