This petition was submitted during the 2010-2015 parliament
Petition Make Job Seekers on benefit prove that they have been for interviews for work to the Job Centre and what the outcome was.
More details
This last year we as a business have advertised for staff a number of times. The last session of interviews we did only 2 out of 8 people attended. All of the interviewees that did not attend were unemployed. We wasted time waiting for the non attendants over several days. I believe that they only have to prove to the Job Centre that they are actively looking for work. I think they should have to prove that they have gone for interviews and what the outcome was or lose benefit, not just write down a list in a book to show what jobs they have applied for.Anyone can do that.
