Changes to FAS Work Placement Scheme

We wrote about the FAS Work Placement Scheme that was launched back in June 2009.
Some changes to this scheme were announced recently – which will make it accessible to more people from December 1st 2009.
For unemployed participants the following criteria have been amended:

Recipients of most social welfare payments, including Job Seekers’ Allowance and Job Seekers’ Benefit, will now be eligible to apply. Unemployed graduates who are not receiving a social welfare payment will also now be eligible to apply.

2009 graduates are now also eligible to apply

The period, for which participants have to be in receipt of a social welfare payment in order to be eligible, has been reduced from 6 months to 3 months.

The requirement for a firm to have at least 10 employees has been removed.

•Previously firms could only participate if they did not have redundancies in the previous 6 months. This constraint has been reduced to 3 months. However, the level of redundancies in the last three months were less than 5% of the workforce, these firms will be eligible to participate.

The duration of the work placement has been increased to a maximum of 9 months. (was 6 months)
All changes take effect from December 1st 2009

 

Jobs Websites in Ireland

While we here at Jobsguide Ireland try and bring you some job vacancies that you might not find elsewhere – we are a small fish in the big sea of recruitment websites in Ireland.
The main recruitment sites in terms of visits according to figures from Google – are : Fas.ie , Jobs.ie, Recruitireland.com, Irishjobs.ie, Loadzajobs.ie
The most visited of those 5 job sites in Ireland, according to Google , is  Fas.ie  closely followed by Jobs.ie with Irishjobs.ie taking third place and Recruitireland just beating Loadzajobs.ie into fourth place.
Google also shows up some interesting results. According to “Google Trends” – during the last 12 months of rising unemployment in Ireland – visits to these main 5 job web sites have fallen.
Google don’t give actual figures – but since peaking around Sept 2008 – unique visitor numbers  to all these sites have fallen since then. Going by the graph supplied on google   visits to these 5 sites have dropped  by as much as 100%  since September 2008.
If the information from Google is correct – it could be caused by one or more of the following factors.

a) Maybe unemployed people are just not looking for jobs and are happy to stay on the dole.
Or
b) People think or know there are no jobs available – so don’t bother looking as much.
Or
c) People may have left Ireland to work elsewhere or have gone back to their home country.
Or
d) Maybe other job websites like this one are attracting more visitors instead o

Other stats from Google – for the search term “jobs”  – show that the number of searches fo the word “Jobs” in Ireland has also not risen in the last 12 months. The number of searches for “jobs” is about the same now as it was 12 months ago. There was a peak after Christmas 2008 – but levels have dropped back and remained about the same since Feb 2009.

Have all the unemployed people stopped looking for jobs?
