EU Employment Legislation and JobPath: Discussion
10:30 am
Mr. John Conlon:
In terms of whether we pay JobPath providers the initial registration fee, the signature on a personal progression plan is not of itself a trigger for the payment. What triggers the payment is whether the person is engaging with the provider. The signature on the personal progression plan can be used as evidence for that engagement, and in most cases it would be. However, whether a payment is made for registration is contingent on the person engaging with the service. In almost 99% of the cases, the signature on the personal progression plan is evidence of that, but not in 100% of the cases.
