Question to the Department of Health and Social Care:

To ask the Secretary of State for Health and Social Care, how many different social care roles have been advertised on the Every Day is Different careers portal (a) in each month between February and May 2019 and (b) in total.

The Every Day is Different campaign drove people to the campaign website www.everydayisdifferent.com to find out more about what it means to work in adult social care, and then signposted people to search and apply for relevant jobs on the existing jobs board DWP Find a Job.

Therefore, there is not a specific ‘Every Day is Different careers portal’ which employers can advertise vacancies on. Adult social care providers/employers were encouraged to support the campaign by advertising their vacancies on existing national and local online job boards, including DWP Find a Job.
