As the Deputy will be aware, JobPath is a new approach to employment activation that supports people who are long-term unemployed (LTU) and those most at risk of becoming long-term unemployed to secure and sustain paid employment. The JobPath service is delivered by two companies - Turas Nua Limited and Seetec Limited.
As of 8 July 2016, a total of 41,436 jobseekers have been selected for referral to JobPath.
