This Government is committed to supporting low income workers to boost their earnings and progress in work.

DWP offers work coach support in Jobcentres and a variety of contracted employment programmes to help people into work.

As part of our plans to Get Britain Working, we will create a new Jobs and Careers Service to give everyone access to employment support, not just those on benefits.
