The department will support customers through the change of their Jobcentre’s location and as part of that support we will advise them on alternative Jobcentre locations, taking into account travel.

Local consultation for offices over three miles and 20 minutes away by public transport, will help inform decisions about additional provision. Easterhouse Jobcentre to Shettleston Jobcentre is 2.9 miles away. Journey times are from 19 minutes upwards, depending upon the mode of public transport used.
