Employers – we need you!!

If you are able and willing to support Careers events we hold in whatever shape they take – please contact our Careers Adviser Ms. Sally Linsell   Email. s.linsell@kssf.kmat.org.uk

An example of ways you could support us are as follows:

• Mock interviews
• Industry talks
• Masterclasses
• Careers Fairs
• Speed Careers events
• Work experience placements
• Attend breakfast meetings.

Likewise, in return we will happily promote your apprenticeships/job opps. We will mention you in our newsletter and any other medium of publicity we will use. (with your permission of course)

Many employers have considerable experience of successfully employing young people or taking on work experience students.

The Health and Safety Executive (HSE) recently reviewed their guidance to make it easier and less bureaucratic for employers who offer work experience placements. There are very few work activities a young person cannot do due to health and safety law.

Following the guidance means those involved in employing young people for work or work experience will be doing what the law requires.

This guidance from the HSE describes how to keep it simple.
