Carey’s Newsagents & Bookstore is one of 20 Erris employers who have signed up with Weekly WorkSPACE, a unique initiative by the Erris Chamber of Commerce and Erris Workability!
📸 Brian Bakeberg (Chairperson, Erris Chamber of Commerce), Lorraine O’Connor (Carey’s) and Rosemarie Mangan (Leader, Erris Workability).
Weekly WorkSPACE (Supported Placements And Collaborative Employment) allows local businesses to open their doors to supported work experience in a simple, but effective way, by asking employers to allocate just 1 hour per week as a work experience space for a client, with Erris Workability assigning a dedicated Job Coach to accompany and support each person throughout their placement.
The initiative is entirely free of charge to participating employers with all training and workplace integration managed by the Job Coach at no cost to the business.
To find out more, email [email protected] or text 087 499 6606 or call 087 398 0575.
The Erris Workability: Inclusive Pathways to Employment Programme is co-financed by the European Social Fund Plus (ESF+) under Employment, Inclusion, Skills and Training Programme (EIST) 2021-2027 and the DSP, is administered by Pobal, and is managed by Mayo North East.
