Stories & experiences of Workfare

  2. I was not told any information on it from my jobseekers adviser, other than i would have to have to go to it for work experience where they may be a chance of a job. The next week it wasn't available any more, he said, and the only place i can go was Untapped Resource where there is NO chance of a job. I told him i didnt want to do this but was told it was mandatory.When i got there today, i said to the person in charge in a calm manner that " I think this is slave labor". I was then told to leave so i wouldnt disrupt the others. I went straight back to the jobcentre and ask for advce and was told to go to Ingues because it's through them so now i've been to them and was told i might be sanctioned.
