Lots of new civil service posts.
Remember that Gordon Brown wanted to drop 100,000 posts from the civil service to save money? At the job centre we've just received details of some vacancies, at the Department of Constitutional Affairs.
What are these vacancies?
Executive Officer, pay rate £8.94
Administration Officer, pay rate £7.89
Administration Assistant, pay rate £6.83.
How many vacancies?
No figure is given, but there are sixteen sites listed, where people are needed.
Of course, they might be only temporary jobs, as the advert goes on to state that the minimum commitment (from the job seeker) is three months, but we don't know that for sure.
So why say that 100,000 jobs must go? Is it possible that the government are trying to fiddle the figures? Three people in my job centre took voluntary early release last month. Why not use them, and others taking VER for these DCA posts? This way, the tax-payer's having to fork out twice. Where's the sense in that?
