The short-time working training programme, is to provide training to 277 people on systematic short time for the days they are not working. The training will last for a year and individuals will retain their social welfare entitlements while on the programme.
The number of participants currently participating on the Short Time Working Week Training Programme is 134. I understand from FÁS that they are in the process of filling the remaining places.
