The Work Programme

G4S Welfare to Work designed and now manages three Work Programme contracts on behalf of the Department for Work and Pensions.

We believe that The Work Programme represents a unique opportunity to transform lives and communities across the UK; an opportunity not only to support people into secure and lasting employment, but to make enormous inroads into eradicating child poverty and kick-starting social mobility.

Through the Work Programme, G4S now has the opportunity to transform lives and communities in:

• Kent, Surrey and Sussex in the South East, where we will look to support around 50,000 people into lasting jobs over the next seven years.
• Greater Manchester, Cheshire and Warrington in the North West, where we hope to secure sustainable employment for over 45,000 people over the next seven years.
• North East Yorkshire and the Humber, where we aim to enable around 30,000 people to find lasting work over the next seven years.

We will continue to consult regional stakeholders, policy makers and employers to ensure that our Work Programme contracts are delivering the right services to the right people.
